The cool and comfortable air continues tonight for one more night. Another pleasant night to keep the windows open as we see a low of 54 degrees. From there, the A/C will probably click on for Friday afternoon and into the weekend.
Friday will be a seasonal day with temperatures into the mid 80s and plenty of sunshine. A great night for those Friday night football games! Humidity should stay low as well, which makes it feel better. However, this is the start to a big heat wave. Will this be our worst one of the summer season? No. That was more likely the one we had in mid-June. However, it will definitely feel uncomfortably hot.
The heat returns on Saturday as we warm to 89°, but the humidity will be a bit slower to return. Saturday the humidity will start to be a bit more noticeable, but it gets much stickier for Sunday. Sunday will be hot, and the first day back above 90-degrees with a high of 92°. It will probably feel closer to 93° or 94°.
Enjoy the cool air again tonight because once we get to the weekend Summer returns. Highs will be 90° or hotter at least 6 of the next 7 days.#WCPO #CincyWX #OHwx pic.twitter.com/xrti95IqMJ
