CLEVELAND, Ohio – Crisp air and glittering lawns greet early risers across Northeast Ohio this morning, as the season’s chill tightens its grip. A Frost Advisory remains in effect through 9 a.m. for Cuyahoga, Ashtabula, and Lake counties, with temperatures in the upper 20s to mid-30s under clear skies. The stillness feels more like late November than October, but warmer changes are coming.
According to the National Weather Service in Cleveland, Monday stays sunny and calm with highs near 59, allowing a gradual rebound from the frosty start. Winds turn easterly by afternoon, bringing milder air into Tuesday. Highs climb toward the upper 50s, and the chill eases — a brief reprieve before another round of showers midweek.
By Wednesday, clouds will thicken as a front sweeps in from the Midwest. Rain becomes likely by afternoon, accompanied by gusts up to 25 mph near the lakeshore. Commuters along I-90 should plan for slower travel and wet pavement through Wednesday night and Thursday morning.
Thursday and Friday stay breezy with additional showers possible as the system lingers over Lake Erie. Highs settle into the low 50s — typical late-fall coolness ahead of a drier Halloween weekend. Friday evening trick-or-treaters can expect cool but calm weather, with temperatures in the upper 40s under partly clear skies.
Looking ahead, early November is expected to trend colder than average, hinting that the first true taste of winter weather may not be far behind.
