Cleveland is waking up Sunday, November 15, under gray, windy skies with rain likely through much of the day. Temperatures should climb from the low 40s into the upper 40s, while a brief mix of wet snow could join the rain in parts of Northeast Ohio early on.
Rain Tapers Through Sunday Afternoon
According to the latest National Weather Service forecast, Sunday has a 70% chance of rain, though totals should remain light at less than a tenth of an inch. Northwest winds around 12 mph will keep the day feeling colder than the thermometer suggests, with showers gradually becoming less widespread later in the afternoon.
Wet Snow Could Mix In Inland Areas
Lake-effect showers will continue across Northeast Ohio, and wet snow may briefly mix with rain during the morning. Ground temperatures should stay just above freezing, so forecasters do not expect meaningful accumulation in Cleveland or nearby low-elevation communities.
Lake Erie Advisory Ends Sunday Morning
Small Craft Advisories remain posted on parts of Lake Erie early Sunday, including the central basin through 10 a.m. Conditions on the lake should settle after sunrise as winds ease, but boaters can expect a rougher start than the calm forecast later in the week.
Dry Weather Arrives Monday
Sunday night turns mostly cloudy with a low near 38 degrees and only a slight chance of rain before 8 p.m. Monday stays mostly cloudy but dry, with a high near 49, followed by a mostly clear night and a low around 33.
Late Week Turns Mild And Sunny
The forecast improves quickly after the weekend mess. Tuesday should be sunny and reach 52 degrees, Wednesday is forecast to hit 57, and Thursday could bring mostly sunny skies with a high near 60.
Friday remains mostly sunny near 58 degrees, while Saturday currently looks mostly sunny and warmer, with a high near 63. A small chance of showers may return late Saturday as the next front approaches, but the best outdoor weather of the week is shaping up for the middle and second half of November.
