CLEVELAND — The holiday weekend forecast keeps getting better! After a few midday pop-ups yesterday, there is only a 10-percent chance of rain. So, Sunday will see mostly dry conditions, but we cannot rule out an isolated lake-effect shower, mainly along the shoreline. Temperatures will once again be a couple of degrees below average, with highs in the mid 70s Sunday afternoon. Humidity will be much more comfortable, as dew points fall back into the 50s, which is well within the 'comfortable' range. The temperatures will fall even more tonight, so open the windows, for most.
Power of 5 Regions highlight: West Region
For a second straight night, many will be able to open the windows for great sleeping weather. If you live right at the lake, it won't feel as refreshing. Within our Power of 5 regions, expect variance depending on the type of weather conditions. Lows in the southern part of our West Region and South Region could get down to around 50 tonight, versus upper 60s for the islands.
Looking Ahead:
Dry conditions will continue for all of Northeast Ohio through at least Wednesday afternoon. Temperatures will continue to climb through this stretch, returning to the 80s on Tuesday and feeling like 90 degrees on Wednesday.
Shower and storm chances will return by late Wednesday and continue on Thursday. Cooler, September-like air will move in again by the end of the week, with highs in the lower 70s by Friday.
