CLEVELAND — Heavy rain and storms are moving out of Northeast Ohio...but only for a brief period. A cold front is approaching the area from the west, and more storms are expected on Wednesday and Thursday, especially late on Wednesday and early Thursday. Once again, we will be monitoring the potential for severe storms during this time. The greatest chance for severe storms is to the west of our viewing area, with the potential diminishing farther east.
Be weather aware tomorrow evening (roughly after 6 pm). A line of storms will be approaching the area around that time. All hazards are possible, including damaging winds, large hail, heavy rain, frequent lightning, and isolated tornadoes. The threat will end around 10 or 11 pm.

Look for a few more showers on Thursday, as the front moves through and brings us sunshine and comfortable temperatures for the first day of summer on Friday. However, the comfortable air only lasts for a couple of days. We HEAT up quickly by the weekend - hello to our 1st heat wave of the season!! 90s for high temps, with heat index values well into the 90s, to perhaps 100!
