CLEVELAND, Ohio — Relief from the heat arrives Monday after Northeast Ohio was baked through the weekend.

Forecasters are calling for highs in the mid-70s for both the Akron and Cleveland areas, a far cry from the recent highs in the 90s.

Skies will be cloudy, though, with showers and thunderstorms possible. Akron should see any chances of showers end in the early afternoon, but there are slight chances of showers in Cleveland past midnight. Overnight temps will drop into the low 60s.

The skies will clear Tuesday but the mild temperatures will remain as highs stay in the 70s. It’s expected to remain sunny into the weekend, with highs getting into the low 80s by Thursday and reaching the mid-80s by Friday.

Highs will stay in the mid-80s through the weekend.
