Forecast: Clear & cool tonight, showers return late Tuesday

CLEVELAND - 11:00 pm Update: Cool & quiet overnight tonight. Grab the sweaters. It will be a cool evening with temperatures sliding thru the 50s thru 11 pm. Skies will remain partly cloudy through the evening as well.

Tonight, no rain in sight. We'll stay dry with partly cloudy skies. Slightly milder than last night with highs in the middle and upper 40s.

Tuesday, a warm front will develop across the Ohio valley and move north into our area. A cold front will follow quickly behind late Friday evening and Friday night. Clouds should thicken up during the day Tuesday with a late day thundershower possible in one or two spots. High temperatures will climb up to near 70 degrees.

That weak cold front will drop across the region slowly and linger thru the day on Wednesday. That will keep the threat for rain showers and thunder in the forecast for Wednesday. Most of the rain looks to occur during the morning hours. Highs Wednesday will once again climb up to near 70 degrees.
