A trough averaging 29.90 inches lingers over Lake Erie as the parent low of 29.80 inches meanders near the Mid Ohio Valley through Monday, wobbles generally northward to near Lake Erie Monday night into Tuesday, and then wobbles east-northeastward toward New England on Tuesday night through Wednesday. This low track should allow a trailing cold front to sweep southeastward across Lake Erie late Tuesday into Wednesday. Behind the cold front, a ridge averaging 30.20 inches should build from the northern Great Lakes and vicinity through Thursday.
