Northeast Ohio weather: Warming trend begins Monday, slick commute possible Tuesday morning
CLEVELAND, Ohio (WOIO) – A First Alert Weather Day has been issued for Tuesday morning with the concern for slick conditions from overnight Monday into Tuesday. Freezing rain is in the forecast that could accumulate up to a tenth of an inch or less which could lead to an icy commute for some.
The First Alert Weather team will keep an eye on this and bring you the latest information as it comes in.
This evening, some clearing overnight but we remain dry with lows dropping into the teens.
We kick off the workweek with sunshine to start followed by increasing clouds throughout the day and afternoon highs FINALLY above the freezing mark!
There’s a chance for some passing snow showers Monday afternoon but the focus will be on our next storm system approaching that will bring a mixed bag of precipitation including freezing rain overnight into Tuesday morning.
Although any snow or ice accumulation looks to be low, it still could pose a threat for the morning commute which is why we issue a First Alert Weather Day to help you prepare ahead.
Much warmer air moves into the forecast for the rest of the week as highs soar and stay above average into the 40s and even 50s on Thursday.
With rain combined with the warmth for the second half of the week, expect snowmelt which could lead to minor and localized flooding in some locations.
The weekend looks much drier at this point with temperatures still staying just above average in the low 40s.

Three First-Year Hall of Fame Eligible Cleveland Players For 2026
On Tuesday, the Cleveland Guardians had another former player elected to the Baseball Hall of Fame with the election of former longtime ace CC Sabathia.
The Guardians have had an abundance of talented players over the years, some of whom will also be newly eligible for the Hall of Fame next year.
With this in mind, here are three notable former Cleveland players who will be first-year eligible for the Baseball Hall of Fame ballot in 2026.
Primarily a right fielder, Choo spent parts of seven seasons with Cleveland. He was acquired during the 2006 season from the Seattle Mariners in the Ben Broussard trade.
During his 685 regular-season games with Cleveland, which lasted through the 2012 campaign, Choo batted .292 with 736 hits, 162 doubles, 83 home runs, 372 RBI, 85 stolen bases, and an .852 OPS.
The South Korea native eventually earned his lone All-Star selection with the Texas Rangers in 2018. Overall, he batted .275 with 1,671 hits, 339 doubles, 218 home runs, 782 RBI, 157 stolen bases, and an .824 OPS in 16 seasons across four different teams.
Mainly a designated hitter, Encarnación spent two of his 16 seasons with Cleveland in 2017 and 2018. He was signed as a free agent during the 2016 offseason.
While his time with the team was short, he was a very productive bat in Cleveland’s lineup. He batted a combined .252 with 266 hits, 70 home runs, 214 RBI, and an .848 OPS in 294 regular-season games. The Dominican Republic native also helped guide Cleveland to a pair of playoff appearances.
Prior to his time with Cleveland, Encarnación was a three-time All-Star for the Toronto Blue Jays. Overall, he batted .260 with 1,832 hits, 424 home runs, 1,261 RBI, and an .846 OPS across six different teams.
After making his MLB debut with Cleveland, in 2011, Kipnis was the team’s starting second baseman for the next eight seasons. He was selected by Cleveland in the second round of the 2009 MLB Draft.
During his time with the team, the left-handed hitter was a two-time All-Star and helped lead Cleveland to the 2016 World Series. He batted .261 with 1,120 hits, 252 doubles, 123 home runs, 529 RBI, 135 stolen bases, and a .750 OPS in 1,121 regular-season games with the club.
Kipnis finally concluded his MLB career after playing 44 more regular-season games with the Chicago Cubs during the 2020 campaign.

Cleveland fugitive charged in 2022 murder captured with loaded gun at deli
CLEVELAND, Ohio (WOIO) – A man wanted for the 2022 murder of a Cleveland teenager is now behind bars after trespassing at a local deli with a loaded gun, according to investigators.
Agents with the Ohio Investigative Unit arrested 20-year-old Marcus McCargo and another man last Thursday outside of the E. 81st Deli in Cleveland.
According to OIU, McCargo was carrying firearm equipped with a machine gun conversion device, known as a “Glock switch,” and a loaded extended magazine.
When agents attempted to stop the men from driving away, OIU said McCargo “tried to elude capture by rapidly accelerating in reverse, then forward, into an agent’s police vehicle.”
At the time of his arrest, McCargo was a fugitive who had been wanted since August 2023 following his indictment for the murder of 18-year-old Samell Watt.
According to Cleveland Police, Watt was fatally shot on June 1, 2022 while walking down Anson Avenue in the city’s Broadway-Slavic Village neighborhood.
McCargo was indicted on multiple charges, including aggravated murder, aggravated robbery, and felonious assault.
He pleaded not guilty at his arraignment Tuesday morning and is currently being held in the Cuyahoga County Jail on $1,000,000 bond.
Four other men charged in connection with the 18-year-old’s murder are currently in prison.
Court records show Sherman Worley Jr., Shermar Worley, William Worley III and Izayaih McCoy were recently sentenced after pleading guilty to reduced charges.
In addition the murder case, McCargo also faces felony gun charges and other offenses in connection with his recent arrest by OIU agents.
OIU has not released the name of the armed man arrested at the deli with McCargo as they have not yet been officially charged.
