It was a warm and windy day across the Tri-State Sunday with temperatures reaching the 80s! This is our warmest day so far of 2024.
We have officially reached 80° at @CVGairport making it our first day of 80°+ in 2024, and our first time since October 12, 2023. 185 days ago! #wcpo @wcpo

A cold front comes in from the north overnight and this will also come with a very small chance at rain overnight into early Monday, but this does not look likely. The increase in clouds, as well as the southwest wind at 10 to 15 mph, will keep our temperatures into the mid to upper 50s out there tonight. Another night where it will be great window open weather!
Monday will stay beautiful and warm, with temperatures into the upper 70s once again. Wind from the north will be around 10 mph. Skies will stay mostly sunny throughout the day as well.
From there, we will see rain chances pick back up through the middle of the week. The first wave is overnight Monday into Tuesday and then again during the day Tuesday. Wednesday, however, is the best chance for rain this week. Both days should stay in the 70s as well. However, Wednesday will be a very windy day. Gusts of 35 mph are likely, and a few of the storms might be strong.
The latest observations have the Ohio River levels in Cincinnati/Covington around 49.5 feet. The river is expected to crest near Minor Flood Stage of 52' Tuesday afternoon. #wcpo #cincywx #ohwx pic.twitter.com/N2GlU7tK7K

We are also keeping a close eye on the Ohio River levels. Water levels continue to climb again after all of this past week's rainfall. The latest forecast calls for the river to crest at 51.7 feet, which is JUST below it's minor flood stage (52'), Tuesday afternoon. Water levels will stay high, so you will want to stay cautious if you have any plans along the river.
