CLEVELAND — Our drought is holding strong but a pattern shift is right around the corner. Summer officially ends at the fall equinox on Sunday morning and that's also when we'll start to get in on some relief.
Mother Nature won't be flipping the switch fully, though. Big summer heat will hang on for a couple more weeks, but the rain chances are increasing... we need it.
We're near 80º Thursday, Friday & through the weekend with tons of sun. A rain shower or two will try to sneak in from the west Friday night into Saturday morning. But we are so dry, the chances are limited... most of us stay dry. Models are hinting at our next best shot at rain coming late Monday and into Tuesday of next week. We'll keep you updated as it gets closer to next week.
What To Expect:
- Bright & hot Thu & Fri
- Few t-storms Friday night
- Dry for the Browns Game
- Staying very warm
- Next real chance for showers holds off until early next week
