The forecast is still a little bit tricky for today, especially in the western half of the region and then overnight tonight for the bulk of the region.

We are still stuck within that upper level boundary, and that means that anything that forms within those waves of low pressure riding the boundary will head towards the region - mainly the western half of the region. We've been seeing that pattern over the past few days, and we'll continue to see it as the ridge of high pressure will continue to dominate the region weather, and the upper level low in Canada doing as it pleases.

Today, I am expecing yet another wave of low pressure to move out of Wisconsin. Now, the past few days, the majority of the storms that have formed have mainly stayed limited to the western half of the region and points outside of the forecast area such as Lima, Ohio and Muncie, Indiana (with yesterday being the only exception). But here is where it gets interesting:

The upper level ridge is expanding slightly and pushing off a little bit to the east as the upper level low slowly moves out of Ontario and into Quebec. This means that the frontal boundary will slide a bit more into the region which will allow for the forming storms to start effecting us just a little bit more. Now will they be like what we saw on Friday, hardly. But I'll get more into those details later.

So that is how today is shaping up in the region: upper level ridge still dominating the region (Causing hot temperatures for everybody). A wave of low pressure will move through the region later this afternoon, prompting a few storms possibly later today (more than likely best chances being after like 3PM in the Fort Wayne and Toledo areas). I'll keep you updated as always, but for now, that's the weather! Extended forecasts are still being made.
