CLEVELAND — It was cold and frosty this morning, but we rebounded! Despite the extra clouds, we still managed to jump back into the mid-60s. We're even warmer tomorrow...
We can thank our wild weekend storm system for that. We're warming up QUICKLY after a few brief t-showers and downpours Saturday morning. After those showers, most of the day will be dry, warm, and breezy. And when we say warm - we mean it!! Most of us are in the upper 70s, with a few afternoon temperatures in the 80s! Winds will be out of the south at 10 to 20 mph with increasing gusts by Saturday night.
That heat is all fuel for thunderstorms. Plan for more significant rain and potentially strong storms in the area for the second half of the weekend. A few storms are possible Saturday evening/night in western Ohio, but most of our viewing area will stay dry until Sunday.
As of Friday evening, it appears rain will become widespread from west to east throughout Sunday morning. There will be pockets of heavy rain, along with quite windy conditions on Sunday and Sunday night. While there is a chance for a strong or severe storm, widespread wind gusts of 40 to 50 mph should be expected Sunday morning as the cold front moves through.
Cooler air will filter in for the start of the new work week behind the front, as highs drop into the mid-to-upper 50s, along with a few lingering rain chances on Monday. On top of the rain, get ready for a wild temperature swing in both directions over the next few days.
