Speedskater Posted June 16, 2022 Share Posted June 16, 2022 There is a big sailboat race regatta in Cleveland. It was scheduled to start Wed. June 15, but lack of wind delayed the beginning to Thursday morning. Any thoughts on wind and waves Thur, Fri, Sat & Sun, during the day? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully we don't go too far the other way...suspect it'll be close to small craft advisory conditions Friday and Saturday... My guess: For Thursday, SSW winds in the morning veer towards the WSW in the afternoon behind a cold front at 15-20 knots. Waves 2' or less in the morning, maybe more 1-3' in the afternoon. Friday WSW winds near 15 knots, waves 2-4' in the nearshore waters. Re-enforcing cold front moves through Friday night turning winds NNW. Saturday NNW winds 20-25 knots in the morning gradually subsiding through the afternoon. 3-5' waves all day, closer to 5 in the morning, closer to 3 by early evening. Sunday high pressure starts building in...NNW winds 10-14 knots, waves 1-3'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Speedskater Posted June 16, 2022 Share Posted June 16, 2022 They only did one race on Thursday (the hope was for 3 races). I think that the cells to the NW and S complicated course setting. Late Fri. and all day Sat. may be a challenge for the smaller boats. the open water forecast: .TONIGHT...Southwest winds 15 to 20 knots becoming west. Waves 2 to 4 feet building to 3 to 5 feet. .FRIDAY...West winds 15 to 20 knots. Waves 2 to 4 feet. .FRIDAY NIGHT...Northwest winds 15 to 25 knots becoming north. Waves 3 to 6 feet building to 4 to 7 feet. Waves occasionally around 9 feet. .SATURDAY...North winds 15 to 25 knots. Waves 4 to 7 feet subsiding to 3 to 5 feet. Waves occasionally around 9 feet. .SATURDAY NIGHT...North winds 15 to 20 knots diminishing to 10 to 15 knots. Waves 2 to 4 feet. .SUNDAY...North winds 5 to 10 knots becoming east. Waves 2 feet or less. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NEOH Posted June 24, 2022 Share Posted June 24, 2022 Low of 49 IMBY this morning. This month has been a roller coaster with temps... seems like it has been windy every day as well. Ground is really starting to dry out with some brown showing in the grass. 2.25" of rain for the month here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NEOH Posted July 18, 2022 Share Posted July 18, 2022 Picked up 2.40" of rain since yesterday. It has been dry locally so it was definitely much needed around here. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NEOH Posted August 29, 2022 Share Posted August 29, 2022 First line of storms blew up just east of here on the Ohio/PA line. The area from Ashtabula on east has had the hot hand with storms this Summer. Hoping the line to the West can hold together for some action this evening. This has been one of the more boring Summers I can remember for t'storms locally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely been a calm summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OHweather Posted September 23, 2022 Share Posted September 23, 2022 Looks like a pretty classic lake effect set-up coming Sunday night through Tuesday night/early Wednesday with a deep trough, plenty of moisture, and well aligned flow oscillating between WSW and NW through the event. It'd be a solid warning criteria snow event in 2 months. As it is now, most of NE OH and NW PA could use the rain so it's mainly beneficial as long as someone doesn't get the several inches the Canadian models are trying to suggest...the instability looks deep enough at times Monday into Tuesday for thunder and maybe some small hail with the most intense bands. Probably will be a waterspout fest on the Great Lakes in general too. Fall is arriving on time this year. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OHweather Posted September 26, 2022 Share Posted September 26, 2022 This event has seemingly trended about as favorably as possible for a long duration, significant lake effect rain event. While I think the heaviest amounts are near I-90 from extreme northeast Cuyahoga County points east to near Buffalo up the lakeshore, activity gradually shifts inland Tuesday and Wednesday so parts of the Cleveland metro and Geauga County will still get some, and a locally heavy band may set-up in northern Cuyahoga and northern Geauga at some point Monday night or Tuesday...with activity likely spreading farther inland Tuesday night into Wednesday. Our QPF grids this morning added up to 3-6" for a large chunk of the primary snowbelt from today (Sunday) through Tuesday night, and some hi-res models have consistently advertised locally even higher numbers than that with any persistent banding closer to the lakeshore and the I-90 corridor. While it's been a dry summer, eventually it's too much rain so we may get the rare lake effect flooding in some spots over the next couple of days. This would have been quite a snow set-up if it were cold enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dta1984 Posted October 14, 2022 Share Posted October 14, 2022 Looks like a good chance of first flakes next week. Seems like it will be the earliest we have seen them for a few years at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OHweather Posted October 15, 2022 Share Posted October 15, 2022 Seems like a good shot for some of us to see flakes Monday night into early Tuesday as a pretty good surface trough axis pushes through, with some moisture from Lake Michigan likely allowing for some showery precip to occur anywhere across northern OH. A cold/moist cyclonic flow then continues through midweek, so we may see some showers mixing with flakes/graupel at times through Tuesday and possibly into Wednesday. Lake effect off of Lake Erie looks focused up the eastern lakeshore through Monday evening before pushing into at least the primary snowbelt by Tuesday morning as winds go more west to slightly north of due west. There may be a nice burst of lake effect in the primary snowbelt late Monday night/early Tuesday as the trough pushes through and the band that will initially be focused up the lake pushes onshore. 850mb temps of -4 to -6C are probably a bit too warm for a notable threat for accumulation, but if there's a nice burst it's possible some hilltops get some slushy/grassy accumulations by early Tuesday. Getting some pretty nice color right now, which hasn't been a given the last few years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OHweather Posted October 18, 2022 Share Posted October 18, 2022 Saw some graupel a couple of times yesterday. As a band of heavy precip pushed onshore last night, it changed to mainly graupel/snow for a time from Lake and parts of Geauga Counties points east. Actually covered I-90 and SR-2 with slushy graupel and caused a few accidents in Lake County...a few reports of an inch or so in the highest elevations in NE OH and NW PA. I guess we're on the board for the season? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAIDEsNow.2 Posted October 18, 2022 Share Posted October 18, 2022 Closing in on about 4" as of this photo sent by my wife at 11:30 this morning. Without power from about 5 am til 10am. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OHweather Posted October 19, 2022 Share Posted October 19, 2022 Parts of Lake and Geauga Counties got a bit more snow than we bargained for last evening into the overnight. Changing back to rain now, but would not be surprised to see a few inches in the higher terrain if people measure it early enough this morning. Some scattered power outages due to the wet snow on trees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NEOH Posted October 19, 2022 Share Posted October 19, 2022 Flew back into CLE last night around 10pm... interesting flying through the intense lake effect band. Woke up to a nice coating of snow. Must have warmed up early morning it was mostly a mix of rain/snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OHweather Posted October 19, 2022 Share Posted October 19, 2022 The burst here in the middle of the night managed to drop a tenth of an inch or two on colder surfaces, which was all gone by 8 AM when I next looked outside. But, on the board. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
