CLEVELAND — A couple t-showers are possible this evening in our southern communities, with a few more storms possible overnight closer to the lake, into early Saturday. So do not be surprised if you wake up and hear some rumbles of thunder or hear rain on your roof overnight. Otherwise, tonight will be warm and muggy with lows in the 70s with patchy fog in a few spots.
Saturday and Sunday are carbon copies of each other: Temps in the mid-80s with scattered storms. However, there are notable differences between the two days, especially when it comes to the timing of those scattered storms.
- As mentioned above, a few storms are possible early on Saturday. After that, the rest of Saturday morning into the early afternoon will be dry, warm, and sticky. Highs will be in the low and mid-80s, then storm chances ramp up during the afternoon. It looks like Saturday's rain will be more widespread and potentially stronger with heavier rain. That means the flood threat is elevated. We will also be observing the radar for any strong or severe storms, including strong wind gusts, heavy rain, and frequent lightning Saturday afternoon and evening.
- On Sunday, the better chance for storms is earlier in the day, with a gradual drying trend from north to south during the afternoon. The severe potential also looks lower compared to Saturday.
A few more storms are possible early next week, on Monday and Tuesday, with slightly warmer temperatures. It will remain humid over the next several days. A cold front looks to move through mid-week, and this will bring in significantly cooler and more comfortable air by the end of next week.
