CLEVELAND — After a wild, wet, and windy Wednesday, our focus shifts to winter returning!

Four days in the 70s are gone (for now), and chilly temperatures have taken over. It's freezing!

Breezy and cold is the story today, keeping wind chills in the 20s all day.

Highs will only be in the upper 30s and low 40s.

Friday is a BIG focus. Wind. Some of the gusts will be over 50mph. That's enough for debris, downed trees, and power outages. Travel will be impacted also. Plan for wind AND rain/snow showers. Temperatures will range with a few showers in the forecast. That means wet or slick roads in addition to the wind.

It's gone by the weekend.

Speaking of the weekend, you should get plenty of dry time, but we are tracking a few snow showers Saturday night, along with storms Sunday evening.

DAILY FORECAST:

Thursday: Much colder. Isolated flakes. | High: 37º

Friday: Isolated showers, very windy. Warmer. | High: 50º

Saturday: Seasonable, mainly dry. | High: 42º

Sunday: Warm & windy before storms return. | High: 65º
