CLEVELAND — The heat continues to slowly build across Northeast Ohio with a shot at 90 degrees on the horizon. Expect plenty of sunshine and mainly dry conditions to round out the workweek on Friday, with highs in the mid-to-upper 80s and slightly higher dew points, meaning it will feel more humid. There is another air quality advisory in effect all day on Friday. It could be difficult to be outside for some folks with breathing or other health issues due to ground-level ozone.
Temperatures continue to slowly climb this weekend, with upper 80s to the low 90s returning on Saturday and Sunday. The 90s are even more likely farther inland this weekend. The same isolated storm chance exists both weekend days, but we expect 95 percent of the weekend to be dry and umbrella-free.
It will feel like well into 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.
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 be delayed. Now it looks to hold off until late Tuesday into Wednesday with lingering storm chances for the end of the week.
Check back with the Power of 5 for updates as it gets closer to early next week.
