CLEVELAND — High pressure will slide over Ohio tonight. That should keep our skies clear for the most part with light winds. Low temperatures will fall back down close to 50 degrees.

Summer is not over yet. As the high pressure slides southeast out of Ohio early Friday, winds will shift around to the south. That will bring back the warmer temperatures we've been used to!

We're back near 80º Friday afternoon with more sunshine on the way. Evening temperatures should fall through the 70s for high school football. We will stay dry all night long as well.

Temperatures climb into the middle and upper 80s on Saturday and Sunday. Skies will be partly cloudy. You will notice the humidity creeping up a bit as well this weekend. As for rain chances: we could see a stray thundershower in 1 or 2 spots on Sunday afternoon and evening. But most of us will stay dry all weekend long.

We'll be pushing near 90 degrees in spots next week with higher humidity and increasing rain chances. As of now, Tuesday looks to have the best opportunity for showers and storms.

What To Expect:

  • Quiet & cool tonight
  • Tons of sunshine for Friday
  • Friday highs near 80 degrees
  • Much warmer this weekend
