CLEVELAND (WJW) – Northeast Ohio is experiencing another warm and humid day, with temperatures climbing into the mid to upper 80s as periods of sunshine peek through scattered showers and thunderstorms expected through 8 p.m.
Today’s rainfall could be intense at times, with local rates reaching 1-2 inches per hour, potentially causing flooding in low-lying areas. Some spots have already seen between 0.5 to 1.5 inches of rain earlier this morning, prompting possible Flood Alerts for the region.
Looking ahead, Thursday brings only a few isolated showers, mostly in southern parts of the area, while the rest of the region is expected to stay dry. Relief arrives on Friday, with lower humidity and temperatures dropping into the 70s—perfect for turning off the AC and letting in the fresh air.
However, unsettled conditions return for the weekend. Rain chances increase late Saturday and into Sunday morning, though temperatures will remain seasonable, in the low to mid 80s.
