CLEVELAND —
The Power of 5 Forecast:
Summer is making a comeback across Northeast Ohio today.
After a cool taste of fall on Monday, temps will climb back into the mid 80s this afternoon under a sky full of sunshine. It will be a little breezy this morning, but winds ease through the day as the warmup takes hold.
The combination of sunshine, dry weather, and warmer temps will make for a great day to get outside. Whether you're heading to lunch on a patio, taking a walk, or squeezing in some yard work, you'll have plenty of time to enjoy the late-season summer feel.
Highs reach around 85 degrees this afternoon with no weather concerns expected.
Looking ahead, the summer feel doesn't last forever. Humidity begins to increase Wednesday as the next weather system approaches. A few showers and storms will return to the forecast, bringing the first decent rain chances we've seen in several days.
The rest of the week stays warm, but you'll notice a little more moisture in the air. If you're making weekend plans, keep an eye on Saturday. Right now, that appears to offer the better chance for more widespread rain across Northeast Ohio.
