Temps will begin in the upper 30s to around 40 early this afternoon, but then fall into the upper 20s by the start of the evening. Winds will remain on the stronger side this afternoon, with gusts of 30 to 40 mph, but will begin to subside this evening to under 20 mph gusts.

Thursday stays dry with a quick warm-up into the middle and upper 40s during the afternoon. Skies will start off sunny, with clouds increasing during the afternoon.

The next low pressure system will approach Ohio from the southwest late Thursday. Showers will spread in Thursday night and linger through most of Friday. Friday's high temperatures will climb back into the lower 40s.
