CLEVELAND — Warming up! Temps soaring into the upper 70s today, but humidity is building and storms are on the way. Make sure you have a plan for this afternoon.
A line of strong to severe thunderstorms will develop to our west by early afternoon and then slide east through the area by the end of the evening. A few of those storms could reach severe limits with damaging winds and large hail. I can't rule out a tornado or 2 either.
A few more storms are likely again on Friday with highs in the 60s. A few of the storms could be strong to severe. Saturday, Derby Day, cools back down into the 50s with lingering rain showers.
