Happy Friday! The final Friday of 2022 has been a warm, damp, and gloomy one and more of that is on the way overnight into tomorrow.
Despite the clouds we managed to make it into the low 60s for much of the afternoon but we stayed dry. That is not the case now as rain has started to move in from the west and will continue to through the overnight tonight.
A persistent rain will likely overnight into early Saturday in some area as the bulk of the moisture rolls in from the southwest. Temperatures overnight will dip down into the low 50s as winds turn to the west.
Rain will be likely for the first half of the day on Saturday ahead of a weak cold front which will pass through the middle of the day. While that front will help to cut off our moisture, it also brings in clearing skies and slightly cooler air. Temperatures Saturday will be into the mid-50s. Rain will likely be done by 1 to 2 p.m.
The last few hours of 2022 will be dry and cooler as we fall into the mid-40s by midnight. That trend carries into Sunday as well with mostly clear to partly cloudy skies. Temperatures will stay above normal into the mid-50s.
Monday will be slightly warmer with the 60s making a comeback, but it will also be a little damper and more humid. While we will be dry most of the day, some light showers will try to sneak in as early as 8 p.m. These showers will be more likely as we get closer to midnight, but we may still have a few that pop up during the big game at Paycor between the Bengals and the Bills. Kickoff is at 8:30 p.m. and you can find the game right here on WCPO.
Heavier rain is on the way for the early morning hours of Tuesday ahead of another mini cool snap to end the week.
