Forecast from NOAA-NWS for Lancaster, OH. 666 FXUS61 KILN 161900 AFDILN Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Wilmington OH 300 PM EDT Mon Jun 16 2025 .SYNOPSIS... Showers and thunderstorms will remain possible this week each day through Thursday. Drier weather is then expected on Friday, with warmer and more humid conditions expected next weekend. && .NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/... Isolated to scattered showers and a few thunderstorms will continue to shift slowly east across eastern portions of our area through the rest of this afternoon. However, some leftover clouds and even patchy light stratiform pcpn (from the convection off to our southwest earlier this morning) has spread into parts of our west. This has led to an overall minimum in instability across our area and some uncertainty as to how much of the pcpn down across southern Illinois and western Kentucky will hold together as it moves up toward our area this evening. Additional short wave energy will eventually lift northeast toward our area later tonight and this should allow for more widespread showers and a few thunderstorms to redevelop from the southwest late. With PWS creeping up close to 2 inches, some locally heavy rainfall will be possible later tonight, primarily across our southwest. Lows tonight will be in the mid to upper 60s. && .SHORT TERM /TUESDAY THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT/... Showers and a few thunderstorms will continue on Tuesday but should begin to taper off from the northwest through the afternoon and into the evening as the mid level trough axis moves east of our area. Wind fields are a bit stronger on Tuesday which could lead to a few stronger storms, but the main threat will continue to be locally heavy rainfall as PWs will remain around 2 inches. Highs on Tuesday will be in the upper 70s to around 80 degrees with lows Tuesday night in the upper 60s. && .LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY THROUGH MONDAY/... The local area is in between systems to start on Wednesday with the remnants of a weak system still passing to the southeast and the incoming surface low pressure and trough moving in from the northwest. With the weak system lingering to the southeast, PoPs do remain across south-central Ohio Wednesday morning before additional thunderstorm development with the main system coming in from the west Wednesday evening. Severe threat Wednesday evening/night: As the weak system moves away, cloud cover should clear enough Wednesday afternoon to allow for plentiful heating across the warm sector ahead of the approaching cold front. The biggest uncertainty with the severe threat over the local area remains the timing of the best forcing Wednesday evening and into the overnight. Hot and humid conditions may be present over the local area Wednesday, but confidence is fairly high that storm coverage may be quite limited due to the lack of forcing. As thunderstorms form to the west late Wednesday afternoon and into the evening, how organized these storms remain as they enter the local area is the second bit of uncertainty. Wind shear values will increase as the trough approaches, but with instability decreasing, the threat likely decreases from west to east Wednesday night. Convective modes and potential solutions will be more readily available tomorrow as high-resolution models extend into the concerned timeframe. Thursday: As the trough slows over the Great Lakes, showers and thunderstorms remain a possibility into the afternoon on Thursday, but primarily southeast of the I-71 corridor. Severe threat is expected to be very low due to the lack of time for instability to build across the local area. Temperatures are a few degrees cooler Thursday afternoon with the cold front moving through, but the humidity difference will be felt Thursday night into Friday morning. Friday-Monday: After the brief break from the humid conditions Friday morning, the heat returns by Friday afternoon with the humidity building into the weekend. A deep ridge of high pressure builds over the Ohio Valley into the weekend, with temperatures climbing close to 90 on Saturday with higher confidence in 90s for Sunday and again on Monday. As the humidity returns, heat related advisories may be needed with the highest confidence for Sunday and Monday at this time. && .AVIATION /19Z MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/... Scattered showers and a few thunderstorms will continue to affect the area this afternoon. The best chance for this in the nearer term though appears to be at the northern TAF sites as it looks like the southern TAF sites may remain mainly dry over the next few hours. A better chance for showers and a few thunderstorms will spread back in from the southwest this evening and into the overnight hours as a mid level short wave moves into the Ohio Valley. Pcpn chances will then linger into the day on Tuesday. Generally expect VFR cigs to prevail into tonight, but as the low levels moisten up, MVFR to IFR cigs will develop late tonight and into Tuesday morning. Cigs will lift back into VFR through Tuesday afternoon as the pcpn tapers off from the west. OUTLOOK...Several rounds of showers and thunderstorms will be possible through Thursday, with periods of MVFR to possibly IFR ceilings and visibilities. && .ILN WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... OH...None. KY...None. IN...None. && $$ SYNOPSIS...Hatzos NEAR TERM...JGL SHORT TERM...JGL LONG TERM...McGinnis AVIATION...JGL |
