Patchy fog may develop in Cincinnati Wednesday morning. The brief murky stretch should give way to bright sunshine and a comfortable afternoon high near 71.

Foggy Start, Sunny Turn

Patchy fog is possible between 7 and 10 a.m., especially in low-lying areas and near waterways, so the morning commute could include a few pockets of reduced visibility. The National Weather Service forecasts a light northeast flow Wednesday as skies clear.

There is no rain in the Cincinnati-area forecast, and the local outlook carries no active alerts. A dense fog advisory covers portions of west-central Ohio, but the forecast for Cincinnati calls for patchy fog rather than widespread dense conditions.

Six Straight Dry Days Ahead

Thursday should look much like Wednesday, with areas of fog before 10 a.m., sunshine afterward and a high near 70. Friday will stay sunny near 69, while Saturday brings another sunny 70-degree afternoon.

Sunday is the warmest day in the near-term forecast, reaching about 73 under sunny skies. Monday remains mostly sunny near 72, and Tuesday is forecast to be sunny with a high near 72.

Cool Nights Keep Fall In The Picture

Despite the warm afternoons, overnight temperatures will be in the low to mid-40s through Saturday. Sunday's low is forecast at 46.

For Cincinnati plans, the forecast favors outdoor time once the morning fog lifts, but a jacket will still be useful after sunset. In other words, the city gets a crisp opening act and then several days of unusually cooperative October weather.
