CLEVELAND —
What's Happening Now
Tuesday was a beaut! Tons of sun and warm.
Tonight stays quiet with mostly clear skies and comfortable sleeping weather as temps fall back into the low to mid 60s.
A couple of clouds will start to build in overnight with a few light showers early on Wednesday
What Happens Next
The extended forecast is looking toasty and active.
Wednesday brings back some humidity, even warmer temperatures, along with a few storms.
The best chance for rain will be across the South Region, Akron-Canton Region, and the Snowbelt, so essentially along and east of I-71. Heavy rain looks to be the biggest concern, though a few storms could produce frequent lightning.
Storm chances continue Thursday, but the focus shifts farther west, and all of NEO has a chance to see widely scattered storms.
Friday currently looks like the wettest day of the next seven, with more scattered rain with embedded thunderstorms likely.
While the severe weather is not looking likely this week, we will monitor any changes to that potential...as always! Plus, any storm can be dangerous when you factor in the lightning.
If you can hear thunder, you are close enough to be struck by lightning.
