Cleveland, OH – Frost could return to parts of northeastern Ohio early Saturday, Oct. 24, as overnight temperatures fall toward 30 degrees, following two nights when patchy fog may affect visibility across the Cleveland region.
According to the National Weather Service in Cleveland, seasonable, dry and sunny conditions will dominate the next several days. However, cooler overnight temperatures and periods of fog could create changing conditions for early morning commuters and residents with sensitive outdoor plants.
Thursday, Oct. 22: Sunny skies are expected after areas of morning fog dissipate, particularly near Interstate 71. Afternoon temperatures will reach between 62 and 68 degrees across the forecast region.
Overnight lows are expected to fall between 36 and 42 degrees, with patchy fog potentially developing again.
Friday, Oct. 23: Another mostly sunny day is forecast, with highs ranging from 61 to 68 degrees. Morning fog may develop along the Interstate 75 corridor before clearing.
Friday night brings the greatest concern for colder temperatures, with overnight lows expected between 30 and 40 degrees.
Saturday, Oct. 24: Morning frost could develop, especially along and east of Interstate 71, where temperatures may approach freezing.
Despite the chilly start, sunshine is expected to return, with afternoon highs climbing between 62 and 68 degrees.
Residents across Cleveland, Akron and surrounding northeastern Ohio communities should monitor local temperatures Friday night, particularly in rural and low lying locations where colder conditions may develop.
Gardeners may want to protect frost sensitive plants before Saturday morning, especially where temperatures are forecast near 32 degrees.
Drivers should also remain alert for localized visibility reductions during periods of overnight and early morning fog.
The extended three day outlook does not indicate significant rainfall, offering generally favorable conditions for outdoor activities once morning fog and frost concerns pass.
