Thursday was gloomy but at least it was warmer! Temperatures Thursday reached the low 30s, which was a whole 10 to 15 degrees above where we landed Wednesday afternoon.
The warmth is short-lived because the cold front will clear out clouds tonight and turn winds back to the northwest. That is going to drive in more of the cold, dropping our temperatures into the upper single digits and low teens. Temperatures are expected to drop to 11° in Cincinnati, but much colder outside of the metro area.
There will be plenty of sunshine on Friday, but it will be very cold! High temperatures will be at 25°.
Once we make it through Friday night we are in for a much warmer stretch. Saturday's low temperature will fall to 14°, but we warm up nicely from there. Highs on Saturday and Sunday are expected to climb into the mid to upper 30s. Saturday's high will be 38°, with Sunday checking in at near 35°.
That is the start of a nice warming trend as we close out January and turn the calendar to February. Highs next week will likely make it into the low 40s, with a shot at 50° by the first day of February.
