Cincinnati is waking to a frosty start Saturday, with patchy frost in the morning, clouds diminishing late in the day and a high near 56 degrees. The bigger cold-weather concern arrives overnight, when temperatures could fall to around 32.
Frost Saturday, Potential Freezing Conditions Overnight
A frost advisory remains in effect through 9 a.m. Saturday, according to the National Weather Service Wilmington. The agency advises protecting tender plants and unprotected outdoor plumbing as colder air settles in, while northwest winds increase to 10 to 12 knots Saturday.
Saturday night should turn mostly clear with calm wind. Temperatures could reach freezing, with overnight lows generally in the lower 30s and some cooler valleys in the upper 20s.
Sunny Stretch Brings A Brief Warm-Up
Sunday will bring more morning frost before sunshine takes over, with a high near 59. Monday should reach about 61, Tuesday climbs near 66, and Veterans Day stays mostly sunny with a high around 62.
The warm-up is a sharper change from the weekend chill than the earlier outlook described in Hoodline's earlier forecast, which did not include the potential for freezing conditions. No rain is expected through Tuesday, giving outdoor plans several dry and increasingly mild days after the cold start.
Rain Chance Returns Thursday
Rain chances return Thursday and Friday as cooler temperatures arrive, with Friday highs in the lower to middle 50s.
Friday night could fall back to around 32 degrees under partly cloudy skies. For now, the week looks like a classic Cincinnati November swing: frost and freeze first, a sunny warm-up next, then a cooler and somewhat wetter finish.
