Good morning. Ohio. I'm Aaron Jolly. What a wild ride today. You step outside to 63 degrees and sunshine, but don't get used to it. Here comes a May-like preview that vanishes overnight. Central Ohio is right in the thick of it. Thunderstorms roll in by 10 A.M., peaking around 1 P.M. With a solid chance of getting soaked.

See you this afternoon.

Good morning. Ohio. I'm Aaron Jolly. Step outside right now and you'll feel something rare for early March. Warmth that doesn't apologize. We bottomed out at 56 degrees overnight. That's generous. But we picked up over a third of an inch of rain in the last 24 hours. And flooding concerns are still hanging around southeastern counties. Dense fog is blanketing parts of the state this morning — visibility is dropping fast. That fog lifts by mid-morning as southerly winds kick in. Now here's where it gets interesting. We're flirting with record warmth today. Down in Cincinnati, you're climbing to 78 degrees. The record? 74, set back in 1910. Columbus hits 75. Up in Cleveland, you top out at 65. Skies clear out as the day goes on. And those southerly winds gust to 20 miles an hour. Tonight stays mild. Lows drop to the low 60s statewide under partly cloudy skies. Saturday brings the drama. A cold front barrels through with showers and thunderstorms. The severe threat is highest along and east of I-33 — central Ohio, the lower Scioto Valley, northern Kentucky. Damaging winds are the main concern, with an isolated tornado threat. The line moves fast, hitting around noon and clearing out by early evening. Behind it, temperatures crash. Saturday night lows fall to the mid-40s. Sunday clears out beautifully. Highs in the upper 50s to low 60s under mostly sunny skies. Monday brings sunshine and warmth again — low 70s statewide. But the unsettled pattern returns midweek. Rain moves in Tuesday night and continues through Wednesday. Heavy downpours could bring more flooding concerns with soils already saturated. Thursday stays chilly with highs only reaching the upper 40s to low 50s. Enjoy the warmth today. It won't last. See you tomorrow. For the extended outlook, check the latest forecast See you tomorrow.

Good afternoon. Ohio. I'm Aaron Jolly. If you stepped outside this morning, you got drenched. Nearly an inch and a half of rain overnight turned roads into rivers and left puddles the size of small lakes. Right now, it's a muggy 60 degrees and still drizzling. In the next 24 hours. And we're not done yet. More showers and thunderstorms roll through this afternoon. Central Ohio takes the heaviest hit around 2 P.M. Northeast Ohio? You're soaked from noon straight through evening, picking up another half to three-quarters of an inch.

Cleveland struggles to 54 degrees along the lake. Columbus hits 65. Cincinnati? A sticky 68. Flood watches stay in effect through early afternoon across southern counties. Creeks are running high. And low-lying areas are already saturated. If you see water over the road, turn around. Tonight, showers taper off after sunset.

Highs soar to 74 in Columbus, 78 in Cincinnati, 64 in Cleveland. That's 31 degrees to 31 degrees above normal for early March. Here's your heads-up for the weekend. Saturday brings another round of storms — strong to severe thunderstorms possible, especially during the afternoon. Highs in the low 70s before a cold front drops us back to reality Sunday. Expect mostly sunny skies and highs near 60. Sunshine holds Monday with highs near 68, then another storm system arrives Tuesday into Wednesday. Watch for standing water today.

Good evening. Ohio. I'm Aaron Jolly. That damp chill in the air? It's the opening act of a soggy pattern setting up shop right over us. We've already picked up nearly two-tenths of an inch of rain. And the ground is basically a sponge that can't hold another drop. In the next 24 hours. Here's the scene right now. Southwest Ohio is sitting at 59 degrees under a thick blanket of gray. Central Ohio checks in at 53. But slide up I-71 toward the Lake Erie shore. And the thermometer drops to 42 degrees. That's where patchy dense fog is rolling in off the icy water.

Good evening. Ohio. I'm Aaron Jolly. That steady rain drumming on your roof overnight left about a quarter inch across much of the state. But the bigger story this morning? Dense fog.

Southwest Ohio is getting the heaviest rain. Already at 49 degrees, you'll see another one to two inches possible today with a high near 63. Thunderstorms are in the mix too. Looking ahead, this wet pattern holds through Saturday. But here's the headline: temperatures surge. Friday could hit 76 degrees in Central Ohio and 78 in the Southwest. That's about 35 degrees above normal for early March. A cold front Saturday brings more rain and storms, then Sunday finally clears out with sunshine and highs in the low 60s. For the extended outlook, check the latest forecast as confidence improves. That's your forecast — we'll be back tomorrow.

Good evening. Ohio. I'm Aaron Jolly. Folks, there's a stationary front camped out along the Ohio River Valley right now. It's acting like a conveyor belt, pulling moisture northward that has no business being here in early March. The air is absolutely saturated. And that means rain. A lot of it. In the next 24 hours. Southwest Ohio feels it first. Cincinnati and Dayton, rain rolls in by 8 P.M. and hits its stride around 10 P.M. We're talking one to two inches possible. A Flood Warning is already up for Mill Creek at Evendale through Wednesday afternoon. If you see standing water on the road, turn around. Every single time. Slide up I-71 to Columbus and central Ohio. Rain spreads into your evening with near certainty by 7 P.M. Expect another half to three quarters of an inch. Lows only drop to 44 degrees. That damp, clingy kind of night where your windshield never fully clears. Northeast Ohio, you dodge the worst of it early. Just a slight rain chance around 8 P.M. but patchy fog creeps in overnight as temps settle near 35 degrees. The real rain waits until Wednesday afternoon. Wednesday stays wet everywhere. Columbus reaches 57 degrees. Cincinnati pushes 64. Cleveland lags at 49. Thunderstorms join the party by afternoon. Now the week ahead gets interesting. That front lifts north Wednesday night and warmth pours in behind it. Thursday brings more rain and highs near 70 degrees. Friday. Southwest Ohio could flirt with the upper 70s. In March. Let that sink in. Saturday delivers another round of storms, potentially strong ones, before things finally dry out Sunday with highs settling back into the 60s. Spring equinox is two weeks away, but this week didn't get the memo. Keep those storm drains clear tonight. Leaves and debris cause more flooding than the rain itself. For the extended outlook, check the latest forecast as confidence improves. That's your forecast — we'll be back tomorrow.

Good evening. Ohio. I'm Aaron Jolly. That steady drumming on the roof overnight? That was just the opening act. We picked up about a tenth of an inch, but the main feature is rolling in now. And folks, we're looking at a classic Ohio split today. Down in Southwest Ohio, you're waking up to a mild 50 degrees under heavy gray skies. Head up toward Columbus and the thermometer drops to 44. Push further north into Northeast Ohio. And you're sitting at a raw 35 degrees. That damp air cuts right through your jacket. In the next 24 hours. Here's the situation. Rain spreads statewide this evening and really picks up steam after midnight. The southwest gets the worst of it — one to two inches is possible, with rumbles of thunder rolling through around 3 A.M.

It could make for a slick Thursday morning commute. A quick heads-up if you live near Evendale. A Flood Warning is in effect for Mill Creek in Hamilton County.

But hold onto your hats — the real story is the heat coming later this week. By Friday, southwest Ohio could hit 79 degrees. That's nearly 35 degrees above normal. The trade-off is a wet, stormy pattern hanging around right through the weekend. You won't see much of the full moon tonight with all this cloud cover. Still, we're gaining over two minutes of daylight every day. Spring is just two weeks away. Keep that umbrella within reach. For the extended outlook, check the latest forecast as confidence improves. Take care That's your forecast — we'll be back tomorrow.

Good evening. Ohio. I'm Aaron Jolly. If you stepped outside today, you probably noticed the squish underfoot. We picked up about a tenth of an inch of rain overnight. And the ground is officially saturated. That sets the stage for a very wet couple of days. In the next 24 hours. In Here's situation, a Flood Watch is in effect for much of the southern half of the state through Wednesday afternoon. We're looking at 1 to 2 inches of rain, with locally higher amounts possible. That much water falling on already soaked ground could lead to rising creeks and poor drainage flooding. Please, if you see a covered road, turn around. Tonight, rain remains widespread. You'll see temperatures hovering in the 40s across Central Ohio. Down in Cincinnati and Dayton, you're warmer, sitting near 50 degrees. Rain continues there, heavy at times, with a chance for thunderstorms. Wednesday brings more of the same. Highs reach the mid-50s in Columbus, while Southern Ohio climbs to the mid-60s. That warm, moist air fuels more showers and storms. The rain finally tapers off late Wednesday night, giving us a brief break on Thursday morning. Thursday and Friday are transition days. We warm up significantly—highs in the upper 60s to near 70. That's about 35 degrees above normal for early March. It feels nice, but it also fuels the next round of strong storms Friday night. Saturday looks stormy again as a cold front sweeps through. Once that passes. Sunday turns breezy and cooler with highs in the low 60s. We dry out nicely for the start of the work week, with sunshine returning Monday. For the extended outlook, check the latest forecast as confidence improves. That's your forecast — we'll be back tomorrow.

Good afternoon. Ohio. I'm Jack O'Malley. Folks, there's a stationary front parked right along the Ohio River Valley. It's pulling Gulf moisture north like a fire hose.

We're talking two to three times the normal moisture for this time of year. A legitimate soaker is heading our way. In the next 24 hours. Northeast Ohio, you've got the roughest commute. Freezing rain is glazing up windshields and bridges through 10 A.M. There's a Winter Weather Advisory around Cleveland and Akron until then. That slick stuff transitions to plain rain once temperatures climb. Drive slow this morning. Seriously. Slide southwest to Cincinnati and rain's already falling. Highs hit 55 degrees with one to two inches of rain possible by tomorrow morning. Columbus splits the difference at 49 degrees. Rain peaks around 1 P.M. There. Grab the umbrella, not the snow brush. Tonight the front stalls out and just. Sits on us. Rain keeps going for most of the state. Central and southwest Ohio hold in the mid 40s overnight.
