CLEVELAND — More chilly, wet weather will arrive overnight and last into Friday. Plan on scattered light rain mixing with wet snow showers tonight. You might even hear some thunder! Bridges and elevated surfaces could be cold enough to get slick. Make sure you're getting out the door a few minutes early, just in case. Low temperatures tonight will fall into the middle 30s.
We're even COLDER Friday with a BETTER shot at snow Friday morning. Lake effect snow with gusty northwest winds and temps near freezing will start our day. That means some light accumulations are likely "where snow showers persist" for the AM rush hour. It will warm up enough during the afternoon to change widely scattered snow over to widely scattered rain showers. We could see some small hail and hear a rumble of thunder in any heavier rain showers. High temperatures Friday will climb into the lower and middle 40s.
We're clearing, drying and thawing out this weekend, though!
We are less than a week out from the Total Solar Eclipse. The Power of 5 Weather Team will be watching the forecast for Eclipse Day like hawks! We will give multiple updates every day. If/when there are changes, we will be sure to let you know! Fingers crossed for good weather!
