SYNOPSIS
GRADUALLY INCREASING CLOUDS BUT STILL DRY WEATHER WILL DOMINATE
THE FIRST PART OF THE WEEKEND AS HIGH PRESSURE PASSES THROUGH
THE LOWER GREAT LAKES AND MID OHIO VALLEY. AN AREA OF LOW
PRESSURE APPROACHING FROM THE CENTRAL PLAINS WILL BRING A CHANCE
OF RAIN SATURDAY NIGHT WITH RAIN LIKELY ON SUNDAY. ABOVE NORMAL
TEMPERATURES WILL CONTINUE WELL INTO THE WORK WEEK.
NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM SATURDAY MORNING/
DRY CONDITIONS UNDER NW FLOW AS THE REGION REMAINS ALONG THE
LEADING EDGE OF SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE MOVING FROM THE CENTRAL
PLAINS INTO THE LOWER GREAT LAKES. LIGHT GUSTS NEAR AND NORTH OF
I-70 IN A SLIGHTLY TIGHTENED PRESSURE GRADIENT, WITH HIGH THIN
CLOUDS PUSHING THROUGH SOME AREAS OF THE TRI STATE. WINDS ACROSS
CENTRAL OHIO WILL DIMINISH AS THE HIGH CONTINUES TO PROGRESS
EASTWARD. SOME SLOW THICKENING OF CLOUDS OVERNIGHT, AS WINDS
SHIFT FROM NW TO NE. WITH INCREASING CLOUDS IN THE WEST, LESS OF
A POTENTIAL FOR VALLEY FOG, BUT STILL HAVE A MENTION ALONG THE
OHIO RIVER AND IN SOUTHERN/SOUTHEAST OHIO AND PORTIONS OF
NORTHERN KY OVERNIGHT. OTHERWISE, SLIGHTLY WARMER OVERNIGHT LOWS
ESPECIALLY UNDER THE THICKENING CLOUDS IN THE LOWER 40S
NEAR/SOUTH OF THE OHIO RIVER, WITH MID/UPPER 30S ELSEWHERE.
SHORT TERM /6 AM SATURDAY MORNING THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT/
INCREASING HIGH CLOUDS ON SATURDAY AHEAD OF THE APPROACHING
UPPER LOW AND ASSOCIATED FRONTAL SYSTEM. HIGH PRESSURE WILL
STILL DOMINATE MOST OF THE DAY, WITH WINDS FROM EAST. SLIGHTLY
ABOVE NORMAL HIGHS IN THE UPPER 50S TO LOWER 60S.
FOR SATURDAY NIGHT, THE APPROACHING WARM FRONT ASSOCIATED WITH
THE LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM WILL BRING INCREASING CHANCE FOR
PRECIPITATION OVERNIGHT SATURDAY. SO STEADY TEMPERATURES TO
START SATURDAY NIGHT AND THEN RISING TOWARD SUNRISE WITH THE
WARM FRONT PUSHING INTO THE REGION. SOME UNCERTAINTY WITH ONSET
TIME OF WIDESPREAD RAIN, AS THE INCREASED MOISTURE HAS A PRETTY
DRY AIRMASS TO OVERCOME, ESPECIALLY ALONG AND EAST OF I-71.

REGION. OVER AN INCH OF RAIN WILL BE POSSIBLE IN SOME AREAS. THERE
IS NOT MUCH IN THE WAY OF INSTABILITY AND THEREFORE DO NOT MENTION
THUNDER IN THE FORECAST. SOUTHERLY FLOW, WITH WIND GUSTS UP TO 30
MPH, WILL BE POSSIBLE ON SUNDAY AND ALLOW FOR TEMPERATURES TO WARM
INTO THE 60S. AS THE COLD FRONT MOVES THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT WINDS
WILL BECOME MORE WESTERLY AND PRECIPITATION WILL TAPER OFF.

STICKING AROUND FOR A PORTION OF THE NIGHT WILL KEEP THEM FROM
