CINCINNATI, Ohio – A warm and hazy start to the weekend is on tap for Cincinnati as patchy fog lingers across the metro this morning before sunshine takes over by afternoon. Highs will climb into the mid-80s, giving residents one more taste of summer warmth before a shift toward unsettled weather early next week.
According to the National Weather Service in Wilmington, calm winds and dry air will hold through Sunday, but a few thunderstorms could develop late Monday morning as a weak front approaches from the west. Rain chances increase to 50% Monday night into Tuesday, bringing scattered showers and possible downpours during the morning commute.
Travelers along I-71 and I-75 may face slick conditions Tuesday, especially during rush hour. Temperatures will cool slightly midweek, with highs in the upper 60s and lingering showers tapering off by Wednesday afternoon.
Residents are encouraged to take advantage of the dry weekend for outdoor plans and to check gutters and drains ahead of next week’s rainfall. More rain is possible by midweek as another front moves through the Ohio Valley.
