Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Cleveland OH
309 PM EDT Tue Sep 9 2025

.SYNOPSIS...
High pressure will persist across the region through the week. A
cold front will move south through the area late Saturday into
Sunday.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT/...
Quiet weather is expected for the near term period with high
pressure in place. Seasonable temperatures and generally light
winds are expected on Wednesday with highs in the upper 70s to
near 80. Given the weak MSLP gradient and warmer temperatures,
a lake breeze will develop late Wednesday morning/early
afternoon which will push lakeshore temperatures down into the
low to mid-70s. Low temperatures will remain below average in
the upper 40s to lower 50s.

&&

.SHORT TERM /THURSDAY THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT/...
Quiet weather will persist for the short term period as another
area of high pressure builds south across the Eastern Great
Lakes. Seasonable temperatures will continue with highs in the
upper 70s to lower 80s. Persistent north to northeast flow of 10
mph resulting from being located on the western periphery of
the high may lead to chillier temperatures along the lakeshore
in the lower 70s. No precipitation is expected through Friday
night.

&&

.LONG TERM /SATURDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
Generally quiet and seasonable weather is favored to persist
for the long term period, though a cold front may result in
isolated to scattered rain showers Saturday night into Sunday.
Confidence is on the lower end with regards to available
moisture with the front, though the Saturday night into Sunday
timing remains on track. Outside of the front, another area of
high pressure appears to build south across the Great Lakes on
Sunday into Monday, though a closed upper-level low near the
Mid-Atlantic Coast may stunt its southern progression and
influence.

&&

.AVIATION /18Z Tuesday THROUGH Sunday/...
Dry weather and VFR conditions will persist through the TAF
period as high pressure continues to influence the region.
Generally light and variable flow continues, however some
higher winds 8-12 knots with isolated gusts 15-20 knots may
occur through sunset across southeastern terminals.
Additionally, southerly winds at KCLE and KERI will flip
northeasterly later this afternoon as a lake breeze develops.
Can`t rule out some patchy MVFR/IFR fog to develop across
Northwest Ohio, but confidence remains too low to include in the
TAF at this time.

Outlook...Fair weather and VFR are likely through this
Saturday.

&&

.MARINE...
Northeasterly winds 5-10 knots this afternoon will turn
southerly tonight as high pressure exits to the northeast. A
weak cold front will cross the lake Wednesday night which will
turn winds northerly to northeasterly through Friday. Southerly
winds are expected to return on Saturday. Winds will remain at
or below 10 knots with wave heights of 2 feet or less through
the period. Daily lake breeze development will turn winds
onshore during the afternoon and early evening hours Wednesday
through Saturday.
