Cleveland is starting Friday with chilly conditions, but the day will warm into the upper 60s under mostly sunny skies. The weekend is shaping up to be just as cooperative, with dry weather, light-to-moderate breezes and plenty of room for outdoor plans.
Afternoon Winds Pick Up Friday
Friday’s high should reach about 67 degrees, with light east to southeast winds early, becoming northeast at 5–15 knots by midmorning and continuing through the afternoon. The breeze may be more noticeable near Lake Erie, but rain is not expected.
Friday night will turn partly cloudy, with temperatures dipping to around 57 degrees. The National Weather Service expects dry conditions to continue into Saturday, when Cleveland should see mostly sunny skies and a high near 69.
Sunny Weekend Holds Through Tuesday
Saturday night will be partly cloudy with a low around 59, followed by a sunny Sunday and another high near 69. Monday stays mostly sunny and seasonable, while Tuesday nudges warmer with a high near 71.
That gives Cleveland several dry days for fall sports, neighborhood errands and lakefront walks before the pattern changes. No watches, warnings or advisories are in effect for the city.
Rain Chances Return Wednesday
The next notable shift arrives Wednesday, when a 40% chance of rain showers develops after 8 a.m. Wednesday’s high should reach about 73 degrees, with partly sunny skies possible between showers.
Showers remain possible Wednesday night and Thursday, when the high may climb to around 75 despite mostly cloudy conditions. For now, the weekend and early next week look like the better window for keeping outdoor plans firmly on the calendar.
