Wednesday (11/2) Morning Weather Briefing
GOOD MORNING!
Game 7 tonight. I am a ball of nerves today. Let's power through.A cloudier start to the day today but it will turn out to be a lot like yesterday. The record high of 78 is probably safe but we can get within a couple of degrees of it!
But the crazy warmth will end after today. The reason? No surprise, a cold front is on the way. The rain associated with the front will be approaching Cleveland late this evening....unless the game goes extra innings I think it will stay dry during the game. But by 1-3am, rain will be advancing across northern Ohio and headed for the Mahoning Valley.
Plan on a wet start to your Thursday. By midday, the steadiest rain will be pushing east and we'll be left with clouds and slowly falling temperatures. Afternoon temperatures will be about 20 degrees colder than today. There might be a few more showers or some drizzle late in the afternoon and evening.
QUIET FRIDAY AND WEEKEND
Tranquil, seasonable weather will resume Friday through Sunday. Friday will be chilly with highs only around 50. Somewhat milder ahead of a cold front Saturday but then a few degrees colder again for Sunday.
ELECTION DAY WEATHER
Looking quiet for Tuesday...no weather-related reasons to not get out and vote! Highs near 60.
LONG RANGE
While the core of the unseasonable warmth will be centered across central and western Canada and the central US next week, it will not be a "cold" pattern for us. A week of mostly seasonable to somewhat above average temperatures looks likely.
2 DEGREE GUARANTEE
Took one on the chin yesterday as the atmosphere really "overachieved"!
