AREA OF HIGH PRESSURE CONTINUED TO DOMINATE THE WEATHER.  THE HIGH
PRESSURE IS EXPECTED TO PERSIST OVER THE STATE THROUGH SATURDAY
NIGHT.  A WEAK COLD FRONT WILL MOVE EAST ACROSS THE REGION SUNDAY
MORNING. AT THIS TIME...TROPICAL SYSTEM FAY IS EXPECTED TO MEANDER
ACROSS THE DEEP SOUTH THROUGH THE END OF THE WEEK.

THE FORECAST CALLS FOR FAIR WEATHER AND SUNSHINE TO CONTINUE THROUGH

HIGHS AND LOWS IN THE MIDDLE TO UPPER 60S.

LATE MORNING OHIO WEATHER STORY
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CLEVELAND OHIO
1120 AM EDT TUE AUG 19 2008

BRIEF COOL DOWN FOLLOWED BY WARMER TEMPERATURES.

TEMPERATURES HOVERED IN THE UPPER 60S TO LOWER 70S NEAR LAKE ERIE
AND THE METROPOLITAN AREAS OF OHIO OVERNIGHT. INLAND RURAL AREAS
DROPPED INTO THE MIDDLE AND UPPER 50S ACROSS THE STATE.  A DECK OF
CLOUDS WITH A FEW SPRINKLES ASSOCIATED WITH A COLD FRONT MOVED SOUTH
INTO THE AREA DURING THE NIGHT.  THE CLOUDS HELPED TO KEEP THE
NORTHERN AREAS WARMER BY TRAPPING THE HEAT IN NEAR THE GROUND.
MEANWHILE...THE COOLER TEMPERATURES IN THE SOUTH WERE THE RESULT OF
CLEAR SKIES AND CALM WINDS ALLOWING THE HEAT TO RADIATE INTO SPACE.

THE COLD FRONT WILL MOVE SOUTH OF THE OHIO VALLEY TONIGHT AND BECOME
NEARLY STATIONARY.  HIGH PRESSURE IS EXPECTED TO MOVE SOUTH INTO THE
REGION OVER THE NEXT COUPLE DAYS.  THE HIGH PRESSURE WILL MOVE EAST
OF THE REGION FOR THE WEEKEND AND ALLOW THE STATIONARY FRONT TO THE
SOUTH MOVE BACK NORTH AS A WARM FRONT.

THE FORECAST CALLS FOR THE CLOUDS TO GRADUALLY MOVE SOUTH INTO
SOUTHERN OHIO THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING.  THIS WILL ALLOW FOR SOME
SUNSHINE LATER THIS AFTERNOON IN THE NORTH WHILE THE SOUTHERN AREAS
SEE INCREASING CLOUDINESS. A FAIRLY LARGE SPREAD IN THE TEMPERATURE
DEPARTMENT WILL BE FELT ACROSS OHIO THIS AFTERNOON. THE TEMPERATURE
WILL STAY IN THE LOWER 70S IN THE NORTH WHILE THE SOUTHERN PORTIONS
SEE HIGHS IN THE LOWER TO MIDDLE 80S BEFORE THE COLD FRONT MOVES
INTO THE REGION. THERE IS A SLIGHT CHANCE FOR SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS THE SOUTH.

TONIGHT WILL SEE CLEAR TO PARTLY CLOUDY SKIES WITH TEMPERATURES IN
THE MIDDLE 50S IN THE NORTH TO LOWER 60S IN THE SOUTH. WEDNESDAY
SHOULD BE WARMER IN THE NORTH WITH HIGHS AROUND 80 IN THE NORTH AND
MID 80S IN THE SOUTH.

A GRADUAL WARMING TREND DEVELOPS WEDNESDAY NIGHT INTO THE WEEKEND
WITH TEMPERATURES IN THE LOWER 60S WEDNESDAY NIGHT WARMING TO THE
MID AND UPPER 60S BY THE WEEKEND. DAY TIME HIGHS WILL BE IN THE
LOWER 80S NORTH TO UPPER 80S SOUTH.

THERE WILL BE A CHANCE OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS DURING THE
WEEKEND AS THE ATMOSPHERE BECOMES MORE UNSTABLE WITH INCREASING
HUMIDITY AND THE APPROACH OF A COLD FRONT.
