CLEVELAND — A mild week ahead with limited rain chances.
Skies will be clear and story for the overnight hours. Temperatures will stay mild for March only falling into the 40-45 degree range by sunrise.
More warmth and sunshine are on the way for Tuesday. High temperatures will top out in the lower and middle 60s. But a weak cold front will drop in across Lake Erie by late afternoon bringing back some chilly air for the Lakeshore counties by sunset. Temperatures in Downtown Cleveland could drop into the 40s by 5 pm behind this cold front, while temperatures farther south stay in the 60s through the evening.
Temperatures take a small dip for everyone on Wednesday, with highs in the upper 40s and low 50s. A system moves through, but it looks moisture-deprived, so the chance of rain remains low even on Wednesday as the front passes through.
The warmth returns by Thursday, with temperatures back into the lower 60s. By week's end, we could reach the 70s! Best of all, rain chances this week are limited, so expect some warmer, dry days until Saturday
The next best chance for rain and storms holds off until this weekend. Much of Friday will be dry, but scattered rain and storms are expected by Saturday and early on Sunday. We will be monitoring the potential for stronger storms this weekend
