Today we are in the "warm sector" of a massive system. A very warm, gusty breezy from the south is bringing in a lot of warmer air and will push our afternoon temps into near-record territory. A few, widely-scattered showers are possible during the day but become much more likely tonight as the cold front approaches. The front will pass through Ohio early Sunday morning. As it goes by, the temperatures will quickly drop into the 40's, the 30's and eventually in to the upper-20's.
The best chance for any severe weather stays well to our southwest as the front approaches and passes.
More seasonable temperatures settle into the region for the rest of the week.
