Cincinnati is starting Wednesday under cloudy skies with patchy drizzle. The rain should stay mostly light this morning, but shower and thunderstorm chances increase during the afternoon.
The National Weather Service says showers will develop and move west across the region, with greater coverage expected in eastern counties.
Afternoon Showers Could Bring A Little Thunder
A slight chance of a shower is in the forecast. Any heavier rain should be isolated, but a brief downpour or rumble of thunder could complicate outdoor plans and the evening commute.
Showers and thunderstorms remain possible before 8 p.m., then skies stay cloudy overnight as temperatures fall to around 60 degrees. No watches, warnings or advisories are listed for the Cincinnati area.
Drying Out Thursday
Thursday brings a noticeable turn toward calmer weather, with mostly cloudy skies and a high near 74 degrees. Friday night is expected to be the chilliest part of the stretch.
The forecast is a more specific update to the midweek pattern outlined in Hoodline's earlier forecast, with the wettest window now centered on Wednesday afternoon and evening.
Sunny Stretch Takes Over The Weekend
Friday should be sunny with a high near 72 degrees, followed by another sunny Saturday near 74. Sunday looks mostly sunny and slightly warmer near 75, while Monday climbs to about 80 degrees.
