FXUS61 KILN 090004 AFDILN Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Wilmington OH 804 PM EDT Thu May 8 2025 .SYNOPSIS... Cool and dry weather arrives for Friday and Saturday. Warmer air returns by the second half of the weekend. The chance for showers and storms returns on Monday to accompany the warmer weather. && .NEAR TERM /THROUGH FRIDAY/... Band of showers and storms remains this evening. System will gradually push out of the area overnight. Winds will gust around 20 to 25 mph at times through most of the overnight hours. Cooler air will move into the region with low temperatures dropping into the upper 30s to the middle 40s across the region. There will be the potential for a little bit of stratus, especially across northern and northeastern portions of the area overnight. Do not think fog will be as much of a concern since winds will stay up some. During the day on Friday there will be CAA. Although drier air will be moving into the region, as is typical with these patterns expect CAA cu to develop during the day before dissipating in the late afternoon and evening hours. High temperatures will generally only reach into the low to middle 60s. A few locations north of Columbus may struggle to make it out of the 50s. && .SHORT TERM /FRIDAY NIGHT/... High pressure builds in from the northwest through Friday night. Winds drop off overnight as high pressure moves closer to the Ohio Valley. Dry, clear, calm conditions allow lows to drop off into the lower 40s for most locations. Some upper 30s are possible in sheltered areas. && .LONG TERM /SATURDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/... Surface high pressure will shift east across the Great Lakes Region through the weekend and off the East Coast by Monday. This will provide for dry conditions through at least Sunday. As we start to get into return flow on the back side of the high, we will also see a warming trend into early next week. Highs on Saturday will be in the low to mid 70s, increasing to highs in the upper 70s to lower 80s by Monday. An upper level low over the lower Mississippi Valley will open up as it lifts northeast across the Ohio Valley through midweek. This could lead to few showers sneaking into our south later Monday, but the better chances for showers and thunderstorms associated with this will be on Tuesday and Wednesday, with likely some diurnal component to the pcpn chances. Pcpn chances should then taper off heading into Thursday as the weakening trough axis moves off to the northeast. Decreasing heights and some pcpn on Tuesday will keep temperatures down a bit, with highs mainly in the mid 70s. We should then trend back up in temps through the rest of the long term period with highs by Thursday into the low to mid 80s. && .AVIATION /00Z FRIDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/... Rain around KCVG and KLUK at the start of the TAF period will move away from the region. Winds will gust around 20 knots this evening and overnight. The gusts will start to let up some late in the overnight and during the morning daytime hours on Friday, however expect them to pick up and gust around 20 knots again during the afternoon hours on Friday. Wind gusts will subside going into the evening hours on Friday. Went with primarily VFR clouds, however cannot rule out some MVFR cigs this evening and into the overnight. In addition went with VFR vsbys. OUTLOOK... Thunderstorms are possible on Tuesday. && .ILN WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... OH...None. KY...None. IN...None. && $$ SYNOPSIS...Campbell NEAR TERM...
