CLEVELAND — Sunshine continues on Friday afternoon, with temperatures in the mid-80s. When the fireworks go off this evening, look for temperatures in the low to mid 70's and clear skies.

Most of the 4th of July holiday weekend looks great. High pressure is still dominating our air, so rain chances will be very small over the next few days, and anything that forms won't last long and shouldn't be damaging. The best chance for some pop ups would be on Sunday afternoon.

Big heat returns! Both Saturday and Sunday will be hot with highs in the low 90s and with humidity on the rise. The increasing humidity will make it feel like the mid to even upper 90s.

Storms are possible late Sunday, especially in western Ohio, but as of now, it's looking like they won't be here until overnight into Monday. The highest chance for storms over the next week will fall on Monday. A few storms could become strong before cooler air pays us a visit on Tuesday.

DAILY FORECAST:

Independence Day: Beautiful sun and seasonable heat!| High: 85º

Saturday: Big heat and humidity.| High: 90º

Sunday: Another hot day with a few storms possible. | High: 92º

Monday: Storms are likely. Could be strong. | High: 84º

Tuesday: Dry & cooler| High: 81º
