Smoke from the Canadian Wildfires have once again moved into the Tri-State, which has led to that haze across the city. An Air Quality Alert is in effect for the counties surrounding Cincinnati through midnight Monday into Tuesday.
The Air Quality Alert for the Tri-State will continue through Monday until midnight Tuesday. Levels of fine particulates will be in the "unhealthy for sensitive groups" category.#WCPO @WCPO #CincyWX #OHwx #INwx #NKYwx pic.twitter.com/3nHJtd0dGv

We have had a few isolated showers and storms roll through the Tri-State and those will liekly fizzle the farther southeast they get. However, a few rumbles of thunder and gusts of wind may accompany some heavy downpours.

Overnight tonight our humidity will jump and we will have a chance at a few isolated showers or storms. Temperatures overnight will be into the mid 60s, right around 66° in the city.
Skies will stay hazy for Monday morning with partly to mostly cloudy skies. Temperatures will warm into the mid 80s on Monday despite the clouds, as we have a high of 85°. Storm threats will increase by the afternoon on Monday as a line of storms moves in from the northwest. We will have enough energy in the atmosphere for some of these storm to be strong, possibly severe. Damaging winds will be the primary issue along with some isolated large hail.
Storms may linger into the evening on Monday with more possible overnight. Tuesday will have storm chances early, but it looks like we will dry out for the afternoon. Rain and storm threats will pick up again on Wednesday.
