Wilmington, Ohio – The first light of November breaks through patchy clouds this morning, glinting off damp lawns and misty fields across southern Ohio. The air carries that late-fall chill, crisp but calm, with the faint scent of leaves still hanging in the air. While the day begins mostly dry, a weak system will brush through tonight and Sunday, bringing spotty rain and the first subtle hints of November’s shifting pattern.
According to the National Weather Service in Wilmington, skies stay mostly sunny through the early part of the day with highs reaching the mid-50s. By late evening, light showers may develop west of I-71 and spread east through early Sunday morning. Rain will be brief and light — most locations see less than a tenth of an inch — but wet roads could linger into early church and travel hours Sunday morning.
Sunday brings partial clearing and temperatures near 55°F before a brighter, calmer pattern sets in Monday. Sunshine dominates early next week, pushing highs near 60°F Monday and into the lower 60s Tuesday and Wednesday. Winds stay light and variable, making for ideal conditions for yard cleanup or early holiday prep.
No frost or freeze alerts are expected, but cooler mornings will continue through midweek. After all, this is the transition season — and for now, Wilmington can enjoy one more stretch of classic late-autumn calm before colder changes creep closer later in November.
