FORECAST DISCUSSION:

Sunday brings even warmer temperatures, more humidity. Highs across central Ohio will inch closer to the mid 90s. With the higher humidity it will feel more like the upper 90s.

This afternoon and evening brings a slight risk for severe weather across central Ohio. We are tracking the potential for storm development that will bring strong wind gusts, hail, and an isolated tornado or two. Pockets of heavy rain may also occur.

Tonight rain chances will go down, but the muggy air will not. Lows will only fall to the mid 70s. A quick shower or two cannot be ruled out completely.

More chances for pop up showers will last stay around for Monday. Tuesday a cold front moved through bringing more chances for thunderstorms. By Wednesday we’ll return to highs in the low 80s and stay there the rest of the work week.
