WIND ADVISORY UNTIL 6 A.M.
Scattered showers and storms will increase in coverage through this evening. Cloud cover will limit daytime heating, though temperatures will still rise into the low 70s, before late afternoon rain becomes widespread.
A wind advisory continues until 6 a.m. Sunday. W
ind gusts will range from 30 to 40 mph at times, with locally stronger winds in embedded storms.
The primary storm system has moved northward into Ontario, but a secondary wave of low pressure along the trailing cold front will bring showers and storms through the night and Sunday morning. The rain will be heavy at times, totaling more than an inch south of I-70. A flood watch is in effect for the southernmost counties of central Ohio.
Showers will become scattered on Sunday, tapering off after the cold front sweeps the deeper moisture east of Ohio in the afternoon. Temperatures will start off in the low 60s, then fall through the 50s.
Dry weather return Monday for St. Patrick's Day, with high pressure building in, followed by a return to unseasonably mild weather through the middle of next week. Rain returns late Wednesday, which will give way to much cooler air and lingering showers on Thursday.
