Today is the last day for 90 degree heat.

Temperatures will quickly warm to the upper 80s by noon and low 90s later today. An approaching cold front will trigger a chance of scattered showers and thunderstorms tonight. The best chance of rain will come around sunset in Northwest Ohio and after midnight for the rest of us.

The sky will gradually clear behind the front early Friday. Expect temperatures to be 10 degrees cooler, in the low 80s. Humidity will also be noticeably lower and more comfortable.

Saturday looks fantastic with sunny skies and temperatures near 80.

High temperatures warm a few degrees Sunday ahead of our next cold front. A few showers and thunderstorms are possible late Sunday.

Much cooler, drier air dips overhead early next week. Highs will struggle to reach 70 degrees Tuesday and Wednesday. We'll be watching this pattern closely!
