CLEVELAND —

Northeast Ohio Weather: One More Round of Storms Before a Big Change

Rain and thunder chances will linger into the evening hours across Northeast Ohio, with most, if not all, remaining under severe limits. Heavy rain at times will lead to more flooding concerns, though, especially in our southern region through early Monday morning.

Temperatures will only fall back to around 70 during the overnight, but humidity will begin to lower, especially after midnight into the start of the day on Monday.

Power of 5 Regions Spotlight: South Region

The South Region has the best chance of seeing more heavy downpours through this evening. With most areas already saturated from today's rain, flooding is likely through early Monday morning. So if you are traveling, remember, "Turn around, Don't Drown!"

The Good News

Today's storms mark the final significant impact from this stalled boundary that's been parked across the region. Lower humidity will gradually move in on Monday and Tuesday, bringing a break from the stormy pattern for the most part. Isolated rain and thunder will be possible on Monday, mainly in our southern region, and then more widespread chances return on Wednesday.

Even better, the new work week is shaping up to feel more like September than August. Expect several days with highs in the 70s, making for a comfortable start to the first full week of school for many students across Northeast Ohio.
