and last updated

CLEVELAND — A cold front sliding through the area tonight will drop our temperatures back into the 30s by sunrise. Scattered rain showers will gradually taper off behind the front.

Tuesday see a brief early sprinkle in one or two spots. Clouds will begin to break apart by late morning. That should lead to more sunshine for the afternoon. Winds will be gusting as high as 35 MPH. That chill doubles down and keeps temps dropping into the upper 30s and lower 40s for Tuesday afternoon, but the wind and cold are the big story.

We're rebounding a bit Wednesday, with temps back in the 40s under a mainly cloudy sky. Our next storm system is approaching late Wednesday and into Thursday. That means Thanksgiving will likely be impacted. There is a lot of uncertainty about the track of the next storm system. A wintry mix is possible - but not guaranteed at this point. What is certain is the wind and cold. The pattern does look wintry and COLD by the end of the week and into next weekend. Highs in the 30s look likely! Brrr. And we might need to find the shovel as lake effect begins to ramp up Friday thru the weekend.
