CLEVELAND — Get ready to sweat!! The warm-up starts today!
The forecast for Sunday is not completely dry; again, the chance for rain and storms is small. Any pop-up downpours or storms look isolated, between 2 p.m. and sunset. In fact, rain chances for the next several days are slim. We are only expecting isolated pop-ups because of the heat and humidity combination. And the heat is the bigger weather story in the coming days!
A major heat dome begins to build over the Ohio Valley into early next week. Temperatures surged from the 70s yesterday to the 80s on Sunday, near 90 degrees on Monday, and into the 90s on Tuesday. Much more noticeable humidity also arrives alongside the heat. High heat + high humidity = dangerous heat. It will feel like triple digits for at least three straight days, something Northeast Ohio does not see often in any given summer.
Better rain chances look to return by the holiday weekend, unfortunately. It is still too soon to talk specifics, but we will keep you posted about impacts to Fourth of July plans!
