Weather Shift Ahead: Chilly Days, Dry Weekend

The week ahead is going to see some significant changes in the weather. We're not just talking about a little drizzle—it's going to get noticeably cooler. Overnight lows will be dropping into the lower 60s by Monday morning, so you might want to grab an extra blanket. Daytime temperatures won’t be much warmer, with highs only reaching the lower to mid-70s. But if the sun makes a rare appearance, some areas could see temps slightly higher. Rainfall should stay below half an inch for most places, except for the southern parts that might get a bit more. Tuesday brings a cold front sweeping through Northeast Ohio, which means scattered showers and maybe even a few thunderstorms. By Wednesday morning, though, things will clear up, and much cooler air will move in. Highs on Wednesday are expected to be only in the mid to upper 60s, making it feel like autumn already. Wednesday night will be chilly, with temps dipping into the 40s. The good news is that Thursday and Friday should be sunny and pleasant, with highs back up in the 70s. Looking ahead to the weekend, it's likely to stay mostly dry. However, if you're near the lake shore on Friday night, there could be a few showers.
