CLEVELAND — We warmed overnight QUICKLY... We were at 31º at 11:59, which means officially, 18 straight days of sub-freezing temps. And there's even more progress on the way.

That's where the streak ends, at 18, and the longest since 2015, which had 19 straight sub-freezing days. We already ended the streak at 3 a.m. when Cleveland hit 32º... But, as I said earlier, there's more.

Gusty southwest winds will help temps SOAR. We're in the 40s with some spots closer to 50º. It'll get cloudy, but the wind will be enough to thaw us out.

Those clouds are in advance of the chill coming back. Winds shift, and temps take a dive midweek. We're back subfreezing, with lake-effect snow Wednesday through early Thursday, with a couple of inches possible, mainly in the primary snowbelt.

DAILY FORECAST:

Tuesday: Breezy & warmer... Finally above 32º! | High: 47º
