CLEVELAND — A line of severe storms near Chicago will slide east and weaken overnight. They will arrive across Northern Ohio between 2 am and 6 am Tuesday morning. Much of this line will have greatly weakened by the time it reaches us. But there still could be a storm or two with brief damaging wind gusts near 60 miles per hour. Heavy rain is also possible with any thunderstorms. The best storm chances tonight appear to be in areas north of State Route 224.
A cold front will then move through the region Tuesday afternoon and spark the chance for scattered showers and storms. The best chance for these storms will be across the southern portions of our viewing area from Mansfield to Medina, Akron, Canton & Youngstown. A severe storm or two cannot be ruled out Tuesday afternoon as well.
Rain chances will begin to taper off Tuesday night into early Wednesday. Although, a few isolated storms could pop up Wednesday just about anywhere.
Plan on highs in the upper 80s and lower 90s Tuesday before dropping drastically Wednesday through Friday. I'm talking about temps in the 70s and lower 80s on Wednesday, Thursday & Friday!
What To Expect:
- Warm & muggy tonight
- Another round of strong storms pre-dawn Tuesday
- Isolated storms Tuesday afternoon
- A few storms linger on Wednesday
- Cooler and more refreshing late-week
