Happy St. Patrick's Day! We have lucked out with some nice sunshine today but temperatures are cooler than anything we have seen over the last week and a half. The rest of the evening stays mild into the upper 40s and low 50s, but at least there is plenty of sunshine.
Skies stay clear through the overnight tonight as temperatures dip into the upper 30s. Winds will be between 5 to 10 mph, which will lead to a wind chill near freezing out the door on Tuesday.
Tuesday will be a much warmer day as winds from the southwest carry in some warmth. It will be breezy at times, gusting to 15 mph. Skies should stay mostly sunny all day as the high gets up to 70°. The average is right around 54°, so this is much warmer than normal. Enjoy this because Wednesday will be much more active.
Wednesday will also be warm, but the wind will be even stronger. Just like we saw this weekend, southwest winds will be sustained at 20 to 25 mph with potential gusts reaching 40 mph. This is all ahead of the next cold front. It will stay dry through the first half of the day, and into the afternoon. Temperatures will be back at 70°.
9 FIRST WARNING: The Storm Prediction Center has included a portion of the Tri-State in a Marginal Risk (1 of 5) for severe weather Wednesday evening. Right now wind and hail would be the main threats. Stay tuned.#WCPO #CincyWX pic.twitter.com/51EdaiRcIo

The evening will be much more active as we brace for another round of showers and storms. The Storm Prediction Center does include a majority of the Tri-State in a Marginal Risk for severe weather Wednesday evening. This is the lowest of the risks, but it is still something to watch. Wind gusts and hail are the main threats, but even those look low. Stay up to date with the latest right here as we will give you the newest information once it comes in.
The cold front lives up to its name on Thursday, because temperatures will be around 20 to 25 degrees colder, only reaching the mid-40s. There will be some lingering showers early, and some spots may even see a snowflake mix in!
