CLEVELAND - Follow Mark on Twitter and Facebook for the latest weather updates!

8:00 pm Update: The cold air has returned. Temperatures will hang closer to normal this week as cold air pushes in from the west. Lows tonight will drop into the lower 20s on a northeasterly breeze. Drier air will try and clear out our skies from west to east as well.

Skies will be mostly sunny across the area on Tuesday. The exception may be along and south of US Route 30 where high clouds from the storm system in the Tennessee Valley could creep in. Temperatures will require that you wear a coat. We'll see highs between 30 & 34 degrees.

Slightly milder air will creep in during the rest of the week. Wednesday's highs should reach into the middle 30s. An isolated flurry is possible on Wednesday as a weak trough swings by. The rest of the week should be dry. Friday's highs will stay near 30 degrees. Then, on Saturday, temperatures will climb up to near 40.

A strong cold front arrives on Sunday. This looks to be the arctic blast that we have been anticipating for the last few weeks. Highs Sunday will remain in the 20s. Monday will struggle to reach 20 degrees.
