CLEVELAND — Looking pretty good this week. No big-time heat. Staying at or below the avg (84º) all week.

Dry weather slides in across the region tonight. Some of the smoke has left the area, especially in counties near Lake Erie. Inland counties near US route 30 are still seeing fair amounts of wildfire smoke thru Wednesday. Low temperatures will fall to near 60 degrees by sunrise.

Wednesday stays mostly sunny and warm with high temperatures in the lower 80s.

A warm front will move north into the area Thursday morning bringing with it higher humidity through the day. Look for muggy highs in the middle 80s. The Storm Prediction Center in Norman, Oklahoma has placed all of Northern Ohio in a slight risk for severe thunderstorms late Thursday afternoon into Thursday night. However, our severe storm threat depends on many factors including the amount of sunshine we can muster thru the afternoon after a few morning showers and lots of clouds. The more sunshine we see, the better chances we have for severe storms during the evening hours! Stay tuned for further severe weather updates.
