Forecast Discussion

Gusty winds have made a return to the southeast Ohio region today as a surface low pressure system has slowly lifted north into our area, with gusts up to 30mph possible. Temperatures will be well above average with the passage of this warm front, with highs in the mid 70s, so make sure to get out and enjoy the warmth before the passage of a cold front tonight. This front will have prominent cold air advection behind it, dropping temperatures into the low 30s by tonight. High pressure is then expected to build into the area, keeping conditions dry for the start of the weekend. However, a shortwave disturbance will approach the area on Saturday, and with temperatures being much cooler during the early morning hours, this could lead to a brief period of snow showers in the morning, but no accumulation is expected. Another brief chance for rain showers will occur on Sunday as another system from the south approaches, but again, minimal accumulation is expected. Upper level ridging will then build in by Sunday night, starting a gradual warming trend by early next week.
