Clouds and scattered showers will keep temperatures on the cooler side again Sunday. After a cool start with areas in the 40s, we will slowly warm to near 70 for an afternoon high. On top of comfortable temperatures, showers will also impact your Sunday. The best chance for showers will be before noon but we can't rule it out through as late as sunset. 

After sunset, dry air will push in and temps will cool quickly into the 40s again. Areas along the lake will hover in the lower 50s all night. The sunshine returns with the new work-week as high pressure takes over. Expect plenty of sunshine through much of next week along with a gradual increase in afternoon highs. By Wednesday, 80s will return to northeast Ohio.
