Cleveland Weather: An "interesting" ride

Written By kolimtiga on Kamis, 25 Oktober 2012 | 13.59

It is going to be a very interesting week.

First, we reach for records tomorrow as the sun shines and the heat surges our way.  Highs will push into the upper 70s and low 80s.  The current record for tomorrow at Hopkins stands at 80 (set in 1963), and I have a very conservative 80 on my forecast for tomorrow.

A strong cold front will plow through Friday bringing a drop in temperatures, showers and blustery wind.  We'll start the day partly sunny with morning-highs in the 60s and fall back into the 50s for much of the day with the rain catching up to us.

Then all eyes keep close track of Hurricane Sandy.  Yes, Hurricane Sandy waaaaay down in the Caribbean (the one hitting Jamaica today).  The storm is expected to cross Cuba and move offshore of Florida's east coast this weekend.  

Then what happens after that will be the driver for our forecast for Monday and beyond.

IF the storm hooks a right and heads out to sea in the Atlantic, all of the collective eastern US will breathe a sigh of relief because any impacts will be minor, at best.

But, if the current forecast models are correct, we could be watching the birth of an historic storm for the eastern seaboard that will bring Northern Ohio some weather drama... such as wind, rain and snow.  The direct effects would start here Sunday with a shift of the wind and Sandy would be the center of our forecast for the entire week as the storm sits over New England.

Believe me when I say that there are a LOT of eyes watching this.  Every model update with new information is dissected for information that will help to improve the forecast.

There will be MANY changes in the timing, the numbers and the intensity of any effects Sandy will have here.  It will be VERY important to keep an eye on the forecast as the track of Sandy is adjusted and the forecasts are honed.

Stay safe...stay Weather Ready.

THIS forecast is based on Current data and forecasts for Hurricane Sandy. Big swings in forecast temperatures and conditions are possible in the coming days.

Thursday: Mostly sunny and very warm.  Record heat potential! Upper 70s/low 80s

Friday: Early sun peeks, then increasing clouds with chances for rain and thunder storms late morning into the afternoon.  Breezy.  Mid/upper 60s early, falling into the 50s for the afternoon.

Saturday: Rain likely. Cooler.  Low/mid 50s

Sunday: Mostly cloudy. Scattered showers...especially east.  Cool. Upper 40s

Monday:  Mostly cloudy with rain...especially east. Rain may mix with snow at times. WINDY!  Upper 40s

Tuesday:  Rain likely mixing with snow at times.  Some areas in the higher terrain east of Cleveland and toward the PA state line could have all snow.  WINDY.  Low 40s

Wednesday: Rain likely.  WINDY.  Mid 40s

...as the timing looks now, the storms's impact (wind and rain) would linger through Friday before finally winding down.

We'll wait and we'll see.  It is going to be an interesting ride!
