CLEVELAND —
Storm Chances this Evening into Monday
More storms will return, mainly impacting our West region first this evening. Storms will move in from western parts of Ohio between 9 and midnight. Damaging winds and heavy rain will be the biggest concerns. More storms will impact the area between 3 and 9 a.m., so plan to have umbrellas and windshield wipers for your commute. More heavy rain will be possible, along with gusty winds.
Power of 5 Region Spotlight: West Region
Any showers and/or storms will return to our West Region first tonight. As soon as about 9 or 10 p.m. lakeside, there can be a passing downpour or two. The main overnight round arrives after midnight, with the heaviest downpours for early commuters Monday morning.
Looking Ahead: Timing a trio of storms
There will be three rounds of storms Monday, impacting different regions at different times with potential damaging impacts.
Round 1: 3 to 9 am, drenching downpours (all regions), isolated severe
Round 2: 4 to 7 pm, pop-up strong-to-severe storms, primarily south of I-80
Round 3: after 10 pm, severe storms with damaging wind and isolated tornado threat. The later this round arrives, the less severe the threat will be. Root for the later timing, and make sure you have a way to get weather alerts, like turning on notifications on the News 5 app.
Additional rain and storm chances return Monday as another weather system moves through the region. There is already a risk posted from the Storm Prediction Center for all of NEO on Monday, meaning damaging storms will be possible. Keep this in mind as we start the new week! Lingering storm chances will continue to be possible again next week, so keep the umbrella handy!
