Cleveland, OH
Blustery start to Northeast Ohio’s week, with wintry mix possible Tuesday
CLEVELAND, Ohio — Northeast Ohio starts the week cold and blustery on Monday before a wintry mix moves in Tuesday morning, bringing a brief round of snow, sleet and cold rain to the region.
High pressure will quickly build Monday over the Ohio Valley, offering a mostly dry setup. Skies will turn mostly sunny west of Cleveland with lake-effect clouds hanging on to the east.
Highs will range from the upper 30s to low 40s near the lakeshore and in the snowbelt to the low to mid 40s south and west of Cleveland.
Northwest winds of 14 to 16 mph, with gusts up to 26 mph, will make it feel about 5 to 10 degrees colder at times.
Temperatures will fall back into the mid to upper 20s overnight Monday as clouds increase ahead of the next system.
Wintry mix Tuesday morning
A fast-moving area of low pressure will slide through the Ohio Valley Tuesday, spreading a shield of mixed precipitation into Northeast Ohio around daybreak and during the morning commute.
Most spots will begin with light snow or a rain-snow mix, with a brief window for sleet farther south closer to Akron.
Any frozen precipitation is expected to be minor, accumulating a trace to a few tenths of an inch, at most. A few slick spots could be possible where this mix is persistent, especially in the snowbelt where the air will be the coldest.
As temperatures rise into the upper 30s and low 40s by midday, the mix is expected to change over to plain rain. Cold, damp weather will continue through the afternoon before showers taper off in the evening.
Dry midweek, rain returns late week
High pressure builds back across the Great Lakes Tuesday night into Wednesday, leading to a dry but seasonably cool day. Highs Wednesday will reach the mid to upper 40s with lingering clouds.
Another system is expected to approach from the Mississippi Valley late Thursday, bringing rain chances back to the region. Forecast confidence drops late in the week as the weather pattern turns more active, but temperatures are expected to stay mild enough to prevent any frozen precipitation.
Highs Thursday will climb into the low and mid 50s.
More rain chances this weekend
Looking ahead to the weekend, another system may track near the Ohio Valley Friday into Saturday, bringing additional rain chances — especially south of Cleveland toward Akron.
Confidence remains low on the exact track and timing, but temperatures should stay in the upper 40s to low 50s, keeping the precipitation all rain.
Sunday currently looks like the better chance for a dry day.

CLEVELAND (WJW) — (WJW) — The National Weather Service has extended its EXTREME HEAT WARNING for all of Northeast Ohio.
It will remain in effect until 8 p.m. on Friday, July 3, in Ashland, Ashtabula, Crawford, Cuyahoga, Erie, Geauga, Holmes, Huron, Lake, Lorain, Mahoning Medina, Ottawa, Portage, Richland, Sandusky, Stark, Summit, Trumbull and Wayne counties; and until 10 p.m. Friday, July 3, in Carroll, Coshocton and Tuscarawas counties.
The heat waves continues! An EXTREME HEAT WARNING will remain in effect through 8 p.m. Friday. Heat indices could top 105 degrees during the hottest time of day on Friday.
Once again, there will not be much relief from the heat and humidity overnight. Tonight lows will be in the mid to upper 70s again. Feeling warmer with the higher humidity. Mostly clear skies.
Friday will be the last sweltering summer day before the heat starts to back off for the Fourth of July holiday weekend. There is the chance of rain and storms Friday evening, around 7pm that could go through the late evening. This may impact some 4th of July celebrations on Friday. Any storm that pops up we’ll have to watch for the potential of gusty winds, heavy downpours and large hail.
This is what the radar could look like by the time some Fireworks celebrations are expected Friday evening. We have a level 2 out of 5 chance of any storm turning severe, meaning that 1 or 2 have the chance.
The upper-level ridge, or heat dome, will start to breakdown on Friday. This means two things. The first is it will go from being very hot and humid to being very warm and humid. The second thing is the chance of rain and threat of storms will return.
The Fourth of July holiday weekend will be far from a washout! There will be more dry time than time with downpours and storms. However, clusters of downpours and storms will move through Northeast Ohio at times. This means some Fourth of July events, backyard BBQs, pool parties, and firework shows could be impacted by rain and storms.
With all the heat and humidity around, any downpours or storms that develop could be strong and produce gusty winds, small hail, torrential rain, and lightning. Here’s the latest 8 Day Forecast:

Mason: I’m prepared to come out on top
“I’m excited. I’m super excited,” Mason said. “This is something me and my brothers have been looking forward to doing since we were amateurs. We fought on the same card a few times as amateurs, and all of us did it together on the last show my father threw here in Cleveland. It was huge.”
“At that time, we were like, ‘Yo, when we do this on a professional level, it’s going to be big for Cleveland.’ And now, it’s big for not only Cleveland, but it’s on TNT, so this is a national stage, a world stage with DAZN. I’m just excited to be able to put this show on with two of my brothers on the card.”
“I feel like it [fight vs Sam Noakes] was definitely a much-needed experience. That’s not the type of fight you have all the time in your career. It was something I felt like I had to do that night. Every fight is different, and it definitely gave me some insight into how I’ll approach the rest of my career. So, it was a much-needed experience and a great fight.”
“It [opponent change] was definitely unexpected. Albert Bell – that’s our guy from Toledo. But it’s boxing. You’ve got to be prepared for anything, and I’m prepared to come out on top. Everything happens for a reason.”
“One thing I do want to say is, I’m the youngest world champion in boxing for a reason, and I’m prepared to show that when I step into the ring.”
“Boxing is offense, defense and IQ, and you’ve got to put it together and tailor it to the person you’re stepping in the ring with. So, with the opponent switch, I just have to tailor it to the person across the ring from me, and that’s Albert Bell.”
Bell: We’re here now, and that’s all that matters
“I mean, it caught me by surprise,” Bell said on stepping in to face Mason on short notice. “It was an ideal opponent for me. I wasn’t really thinking about fighting Abdullah, especially not this soon. But everything made sense. I talked to my pops about it, and it made sense, so I stepped in to save the card, get my world title opportunity and put on a show for all of Ohio.”
“I mean, I get turned down by a lot of guys. I’m not saying that in a cocky way or trying to act like I’m the boogeyman or anything like that, but a lot of guys say no when my name comes across their table. I would’ve had the name I was supposed to have by now if it weren’t for that, but what’s delayed is not denied. We’re here now, and that’s all that matters.”
“I just need to be the best version of myself. I know he’s coming to be the best version of himself. He’s prepared, I’m prepared. We’re ready. We’re two top fighters, and we’re professionals. We’re both Ohioans. We’ve got history with each other, and it’s gonna be a show for sure.”
Mason vs Bell undercard
In the co-feature, Bruce Carrington (17-0, 10 KOs) of Brooklyn makes the first defense of his WBC featherweight title against Rene Palacios (19-0-1, 10 KOs) of Mexico.
On the undercard, Cleveland’s Delante “Tiger” Johnson (17-0, 8 KOs) takes on Canada-based Mexican Christopher Guerrero (16-0, 9 KOs) at welterweight.
Plus, Deric Davis (11-0, 10 KOs) of Fort Washington, Maryland, and Carlos Ramos (18-4-1, 10 KOs) of Spain by way of Ecuador, square off at lightweight.
