CLEVELAND — Get ready to sweat! It is going to be a classic summer weekend with temperatures into the upper 80s and the low 90s returning on Sunday and into Monday. The 90s are even more likely farther inland this weekend.

It will also be very muggy, making it feel hotter than it is for the next several days. Plan for heat indices in the 90s and closer to 100 for much of the area on Monday and Tuesday, so be sure to take proper precautions when outside for a while.

The same isolated storm chance exists both weekend days, but we expect 95 percent of the weekend to be dry and umbrella-free. Any pop-up storms the next several days will be brief but could pack some gusty winds and heavy rain.

The best rain chances continue to hold off until next week. Storm chances are expected to ramp up by Tuesday into Wednesday, with lingering storm chances for the end of the week. With increasing storm chances, highs will dip a couple of degrees next week, but it will still be warm in the mid-80s and very humid.

Friday Night: Warm and muggy.| Low: 70º

Saturday: Hot again. | High: 89º

Sunday: Hot Hot Hot. | High: 90º

Monday: Pop-up storm chance. Hot & humid. | High: 91º

Tuesday: Storms possible, especially late | High: 88º

Wednesday: More scattered storms possible. | High: 87º

Thursday: A bit cooler with a chance of showers/storms. | High: 85º
