Timeline: When to expect widespread rain in NE Ohio

CLEVELAND (WJW) – Hurricane made landfall in Jamaica this afternoon as one of the most powerful hurricanes in the Atlantic. It is expected to track through eastern Cuban, into the Bahamas and then out to sea. There will be no direct impacts on the United States.

It will be another quiet and cool evening for us across Northeast Ohio. Skies will be clear, it will be dry and temps in the 40s. You will want the jacket as there will be a little breeze from time to time.

Similar to last night, temps are in the upper 30s, clear and quiet.

Much of Wednesday will be dry with some sunshine in the morning. Temperatures will be a few degrees cooler than average but still an all around pleasant day. Clouds will be on the increase throughout the afternoon. Widespread rain arrives from the south by mid evening and continues Wednesday night.

Steady rain continues all day Thursday for all areas. We could wind up with an inch or two of rain by Friday.

Scattered rain showers will continue with a WNW wind and cooler temps on Friday.
