Synopsis...
HIGH PRESSURE OVER THE GREAT LAKES TO WESTERN KENTUCKY CONTINUED TO
PRODUCE DRY CONDITIONS AND ALMOST CLOUDLESS SKIES THIS AFTERNOON.
THE ABUNDANT SUNSHINE...EVEN THOUGH NORTHERLY WINDS
PREVAILED...ALLOWED TEMPERATURES TO CLIMB TO AFTERNOON READINGS FROM
THE UPPER 70S ALONG THE LAKE ERIE SOUTH SHORE...TO THE MIDDLE TO
UPPER 80S ACROSS THE STATE.
AN UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE...PRODUCING SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS
OVER LAKE MICHIGAN...WAS DROPPING TO THE SOUTH AT THE END OF
THE AFTERNOON...AND HAS SPREAD CLOUDS OVER THE WESTERN REGION OF THE
STATE. THERE IS A SLIGHT CHANCE OF A SHOWER OR AN ISOLATED
THUNDERSTORM ALONG THE OHIO AND INDIANA BORDERS WITH THIS
DISTURBANCE OVERNIGHT. BUT FOR MOST OF THE STATE SKIES WILL BE
MOSTLY CLEAR. TEMPERATURES OVERNIGHT WILL FALL A FEW MORE DEGREES
BOTTOMING OUT IN THE MIDDLE 50S IN THE SOUTHEAST TO THE MIDDLE 60S
IN THE WEST.
THE HIGH PRESSURE RIDGE WILL DRIFT SLOWLY TO THE EAST THROUGH
FRIDAY....WITH THE SURFACE HIGH OFF TO THE EAST OF THE STATE. THIS
WILL ALLOW A WARM FRONT TO LIFT TO THE NORTHEAST THROUGH THE STATE.
THIS WILL ALSO PRODUCE SOUTHERLY WINDS...BRINGING HOT AND HUMID
CONDITIONS THAT WILL BE FAVORABLE FOR A CHANCE OF AFTERNOON AND
EVENING SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS. THE AFTERNOON
TEMPERATURES WILL CLIMB TO READINGS IN THE MIDDLE 80S.
ON FRIDAY EVENING THROUGH SATURDAY MORNING...A SCATTERED SHOWER OR
THUNDERSTORM MAY LINGER IN THE STATE...BUT WILL SLOWLY DISSIPATE
LATE IN THE EVENING. OVERNIGHT LOWS WILL TAIL OFF TO READINGS
RANGING FROM THE MIDDLE 60S IN THE SOUTHEAST...TO THE LOWER 70S IN
THE NORTHWEST.
EXPECT AN INCREASING CHANCE FOR SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS SATURDAY
AND SUNDAY...AS A WEAK COLD FRONT DROPS TO THE SOUTHEAST AND
THROUGH THE STATE. HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS BACK ACROSS THE STATE SUNDAY
NIGHT WITH THE COLD FRONT STALLING TO THE SOUTH OF THE OHIO VALLEY.
THE HIGH TEMPERATURES WILL REACH THE UPPER 80S TO THE LOWER 90S
SATURDAY AND SUNDAY...THEN LEVEL OUT IN THE MIDDLE TO UPPER 80S ON
MONDAY AND TUESDAY.
THE OHIO WEATHER STORY WILL BE DISCONTINUED ON JULY 1ST. QUESTIONS

year. (David Ludlum)
