Last Weekend of Summer

Warm air returns next week!

Our area will stay on the southern edge of that Canadian high pressure overnight & through the weekend as it progresses eastward across Lake Ontario. http://aviationweather.gov/adds/progs/nav.php?current=0 A few weak disturbances will provide abundant clouds over the weekend. Some light patchy drizzle is possible especially in the mountains Saturday evening. Otherwise we have a mainly dry weekend forecast with temperatures rebounding into the low to mid 70s during the day. More moisture will bring slight chance for rain late Monday.

Tonight...abundant clouds https://aviationweather.gov/adds/satellite/displaySat.php?region=DTW&isingle=single&itype=vis & cool air lingering in the mountains this afternoon & evening will keep things on the cool side. Forecast will stay cool & mainly dry with a few passing clouds overnight. Lows will be in the mid 40s with dense patchy fog into Saturday morning.

Our area will stay on the southern edge of cool Canadian high pressure over the weekend. A few weak disturbances & shallow moisture may trigger some light drizzle, mainly in the higher elevations & east of our forecast area Saturday afternoon/evening. Spotty showers may crop up in the mountains briefly on Sunday. Otherwise, an easterly flow aloft will set us up for a mainly dry forecast under a sun/cloud mix this weekend.

Temperatures this weekend will depend on cloud coverage/solar radiation reaching the surface. By and large, daytime temperatures will return to normal with highs in the low/mid 70s. Nighttime temps will fall into the low 50s. Warm front will bring even warmer air and slight chance of rain across the Ohio Valley Monday night/Tuesday.
