FORECAST | Quiet today, severe threat Tuesday

Several rounds of rain and storms on the way this week.

CLEVELAND — After a weekend with hit-or-miss downpours, we'll quiet down to start the work week before an active weather pattern takes back over for much of the week. 

Let's start with today.

Clouds will remain stubborn as an area of low pressure heads into the Ohio Valley. We have dry air with a wind out of the northeast, which will help keep the bulk of the rain to our south. Temps will be seasonable as they reach the upper 60s to near 70.

Drier Air Moving In

Attention then turns toward our next storm system moving in from the west. A severe weather outbreak is expected today in the central Plains -- and that threat will translate east Tuesday.

Storm Threat Today Will Shift East Tuesday

We could see a round of leftover gusty storms move through during the day, but the best chance for stronger storms looks to arrive sometime between late afternoon and later in the evening into the overnight. Some of these storms could be severe. We'll want to be weather ready as we move into our Tuesday afternoon. 

We'll quiet down Wednesday before another round of rain and storms moves in late Wednesday through Thursday. This round will bring a dose of much cooler air to northern Ohio for Friday and Saturday with some lingering showers on Friday off the lake. Temps look to remain on the cooler, but comfortable side through the weekend. 

THE 3 DAY FORECAST

TODAY: Mainly cloudy with isolated p.m. showers in our southern counties. Upper 60s. 

TUESDAY: Sunshine then scattered storms. Some storms could be strong. Upper 70s. 

WEDNESDAY: Mix of sun and clouds with late day rain chances. Upper 70s.
