CLEVELAND — Plan for a mostly cloudy night, with passing showers and mild temperatures. All the clouds and showery weather on Sunday prevented our temperatures from climbing too high, but overnight the clouds will prevent our temperatures from dropping very much. Lows will be in the upper 60s and low 70s. It will be muggy out the door in the morning as well! Lingering showers are expected to continue on and off through tonight and into Monday.

Power of 5 Regions highlight: CLE Metro and Snowbelt Region

The best chance for these showers looks to be across far NE Ohio in the CLE Metro and Snowbelt Regions. Its location will be over the lake, so being closest to the lake has the highest chance of showers compared to other regions in NEO. A few pockets of moderate to heavier rainfall will also be possible here. Additional passing lighter showers are possible elsewhere across NEO.

Looking ahead

Get ready to sweat! Temperatures are expected to be around 90 degrees for the start of September. Temperatures and humidity will climb more on Monday, with the highest temperatures and heat index values expected on Tuesday and especially on Wednesday. It will likely feel like the mid to upper 90s and even low 100s, especially in the west region where the hottest temperatures are expected.

More hit-and-miss passing showers and storms are expected on Monday and Tuesday. The exact placement of storms on Tuesday is uncertain, but any that develop could become strong or severe. It appears the heat wave ends by the end of the workweek, with increased chances of storms by Wednesday night and into Thursday. We will keep you posted on exact timing in the coming days.
