CLEVELAND — Grab the rain gear for Friday. Widespread rain fell this morning and will be followed by scattered thunderstorms this afternoon. Skies will remain cloudy through the day, keeping our temperatures stuck in the upper 60s and low 70s during the afternoon.

Widely scattered showers and storms will linger into Saturday, although they do not look widespread. In fact, the latest forecast trends suggest a MUCH DRIER Saturday for outdoor activities. Highs on Saturday should top out in the 70s. A lake breeze is expected along the immediate lakeshore, keeping temps in the 60s during the afternoon.

There is a very small chance of a shower on Sunday but it looks dry for the vast majority of us. Sunday will be your best day to get outside this weekend. Highs on Sunday could get closer to 80 degrees.

Temps soar next week into the 80s before midweek storms roll in on Wednesday.

What To Expect:

  • Rain & thunderstorms on Friday
  • A few showers on Saturday
  • Plenty of dry time on Saturday
  • Mainly dry Sunday & warming up
  • Big heat next week.
