Cleveland, Ohio – Sunshine will brighten skies across Northeast Ohio today, pushing temperatures into the low 60s before a sharp cooldown overnight could trigger frost in interior areas east of I-71.
According to the National Weather Service Cleveland, clear skies combined with light winds tonight will create ideal conditions for frost to form, especially across rural parts of counties like Medina, Portage, and Ashtabula. High temperatures today are expected to reach 61°F in Akron, 62°F in Canton, and 60°F around Cleveland.
Drivers and gardeners alike should prepare for the chilly night ahead. Residents in more sheltered areas are urged to cover sensitive plants and limit overnight travel if frost settles on road surfaces early Monday morning. Cities such as Youngstown and Mansfield could experience temperatures dipping into the 30s by dawn.
This brief frost threat is a typical late-April reminder for Northeast Ohio, following a stretch of unseasonably warm afternoons. Updates on any additional advisories or overnight lows will be issued later today by the National Weather Service.
