CLEVELAND, Ohio (WOIO) – An area of low pressure sits over eastern Kentucky this morning and tracking east.
It will be over New Jersey this evening.
It’ll be unsettled today with scattered showers and storms.
The better potential will be late morning and through the afternoon.
The issue we have working here is that any shower or storm that pulses up will be very slow moving.
This could result in locally heavy rain in spots.
Be prepared for this threat when travelling today.
The clouds will keep things cooler with most temperatures this afternoon in the 64 to 69 degree range.
A wind off of Lake Erie will also keep things cooler closer to the water.
We have the rain threat ending this evening.
Tomorrow looks dry with a cloudy morning followed by a clearing sky by afternoon.
