Forecast Discussion

We are currently under a ridge, which has brought some slightly warmer than normal temperatures. This ridge will continue for a few more days (through Thursday), which will bring even warmer high temperatures that could be near record-breaking tomorrow (Wednesday) and Thursday. A trough will approach Ohio on Thursday, but will weaken to a point where it isn’t much of a trough. However, there will still be a lingering line of showers and thunderstorms, so that line of showers and thunderstorms will move through Ohio Thursday evening into the overnight hours on Friday. It appears to stall for a bit over SE Ohio, which would be great since we are in dire need of rain from the drought, even if the drought won’t be nearly as impactful this time of year. After this brief intermission period, the jet stream will become more zonal (moving W to E) on Friday and into Saturday, where it will start to snake a bit more, putting us back into a ridge over the weekend and into next week (with a slight chance of rain on Sunday and Sunday evening). So for the high temperatures, both tomorrow and Thursday will be approaching the low 80s, Friday and Saturday will be in the mid 60s, and Sunday will be in the low 70s. Notable low temperatures include the mid 30s on both Friday and Saturday. So go out and enjoy the nice weather while we still have it!
