Humidity And Storm Chances Up For Cincinnati

FIVE AT 6:00. ALL RIGHT. TURNING NOW TO OUR FORECAST WITH CHIEF METEOROLOGIST KEVIN ROBINSON. IT IS THE WEEKEND YOU GUYS HAVE BEEN TRACKING WHAT'S TO COME. AND THAT IS THE RETURN OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS AND MISERABLE LEVELS OF HUMIDITY FOR NEXT WEEK. I WISH I COULD FIND ANOTHER WAY TO SAY IT, BUT THAT'S JUST WHAT IT'S GOING TO BE. IT IS REALLY GOING TO BE UNCOMFORTABLY HUMID GOING INTO NEXT WEEK. NOW IT'S GOING TO BUILD OVER THE WEEKEND, BUT IT'S MISERABLE NEXT WEEK. ALL RIGHT. SO ALONG WITH THE BIG SPIKE IN HUMIDITY WILL COME THE RETURN OF DOWNPOURS AND THUNDERSTORMS TOO. YOU DON'T HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT THAT HERE THIS EVENING OR TONIGHT. BUT TOMORROW EVENING, SUNDAY, MONDAY, AND THEN BASICALLY, WE COULD TAKE THIS OUT THROUGH THE BETTER PART OF NEXT WEEK. WE'LL HAVE THE CHANCE FOR SHOWERS AND STORMS IN THERE. IT IS QUIET ACROSS OUR REGION TODAY. NOTICE THE TRI-STATE RIGHT HERE. BUT THEN HERE'S YOUR WEATHER SYSTEM FOR THE WEEKEND. THAT MASSIVE CLOUD COVER BACK OUT TO OUR WEST. THAT IS THE WEEKEND WEATHER SYSTEM THAT ESSENTIALLY WILL PARK ITSELF OVER US, NOT JUST FOR THE WEEKEND, BUT PROBABLY FOR THE FIRST HALF OF NEXT WEEK, AND COULD DELIVER QUITE A BIT OF RAINFALL FOR SOME OF US. NOW INTO YOUR SATURDAY SPECIFICALLY, WE DO HAVE A LOW END RISK FOR A COUPLE OF STRONG, MAYBE A SEVERE STORM OR TWO TOMORROW AFTERNOON AND EVENING. THE BETTER CHANCE WILL BE NEAR I-70 IN NORTH, BASICALLY UP TOWARDS COLUMBUS AND CLEVELAND. THAT'S WHERE THE REALLY ACTIVE WEATHER WILL BE. BUT THERE COULD BE A ROGUE STORM THAT TRIES TO DEVELOP AS FAR SOUTH AS THE OHIO RIVER. LET ME TAKE YOU THROUGH THIS EVENING. AND TONIGHT IT'S COMPLETELY DRY OUT THERE. WHEN YOU WAKE UP IN THE MORNING, IT'S STILL GOING TO BE DRY. BUT NOTICE THE FIRST HALF OF YOUR SATURDAY. IF YOU'RE NORTH OF THE OHIO RIVER AND THE FARTHER NORTH YOU GO, THERE WILL BE THE CHANCE FOR A BRIEF PASSING DOWNPOUR. NOTHING THAT STICKS AROUND TOO LONG AS A GOOD CHUNK OF YOUR SATURDAY AFTERNOON WILL ACTUALLY BE WARM AND DRY OUT THERE. THAT IS UNTIL LATE EVENING, I THINK AFTER 5 OR 6, THOSE THUNDERSTORMS THAT ARE UP NEAR I-70 WILL BEGIN TO DROP THEIR WAY SOUTH THROUGH THE EVENING. NOW, BECAUSE THEY'LL BE SLOW MOVING. IT MAY TAKE A WHILE FOR SHOWERS AND STORMS TO IMPACT EVERYONE. SO DEPENDING ON YOUR LOCATION, YOU VERY WELL MAY HAVE A MAINLY DRY SATURDAY, ESPECIALLY THE FARTHER SOUTH YOU ARE. BUT THEN ON SUNDAY, THAT FRONT IS BASICALLY PARKED RIGHT ON TOP OF US. WE'LL THROW A LITTLE DAYTIME HEATING IN THERE AND SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS SHOULD BECOME PRETTY WIDESPREAD SUNDAY AFTERNOON AND EVENING. AND THIS IS ALL AS WE BUILD THOSE HUMIDITY LEVELS UP FOR NEXT WEEK. SO THAT'S A LOOK AT FUTURECAST. LET'S TALK ABOUT THE HUMIDITY JUMPING HERE. YOU'LL START TO FEEL IT TOMORROW. YOU'LL NOTICE IT FOR SURE. SUNDAY I THINK MONDAY, TUESDAY, WEDNESDAY OF NEXT WEEK. YOU'RE LITERALLY GOING TO FEEL LIKE YOU'RE KIND OF WEARING THE AIR. IT'S GOING TO BE THAT HUMID OUT THERE. SO FOR NOW IT'S PRETTY COMFORTABLE 82. IT'S WARM, HUMIDITY IS LOW THOUGH. BEAUTIFUL EVENING COMING UP 80 IN WILMINGTON, 84 HAMILTON 83 IN VERSAILLES. THE NEXT COUPLE OF HOURS LOOK LIKE THIS. IT'S A NICE EVENING. WE'LL STILL UP FROM AROUND 80 INTO THE 70S. A LITTLE MILDER TONIGHT. LOWS ONLY DOWN INTO THE 60S VERSUS YOU KNOW, WE'VE HAD 50S MOST OF THIS WEEK. SO IT STAYS MILD. BUT IT'S NICE 65 TOMORROW. IT'S A WARM DAY AT 85. COULD HAVE AN EARLY DOWNPOUR. BUT THE BETTER CHANCE FOR SHOWERS AND STORMS IN THE LATE AFTERNOON INTO THE EVENING. THAT'S WHERE I'VE PUT THE IMPACT ICON ON YOUR SATURDAY EVENING AND NIGHT. HERE'S YOUR SEVEN DAY FORECAST. THE ONLY REASON WHY TEMPERATURES ARE DOWN. IT LOOKS LIKE THE FIRST HALF OF NEXT WEEK IS BECAUSE WE'LL HAVE DAILY CHANCES FOR SHOWERS AND STORMS. IN FACT, WE COULD PICK UP A LOT OF RAIN. SOMEONE MAY PICK UP 1 TO 3IN OF RAIN BEFORE EARLY NEXT WEEK. AND THEN CHRIS AND ASHLEY, WE'RE GOING TO BRING THE SUN BACK, AND ALL OF THAT MOISTURE HAS TO GET BAKED OUT OF THE SOIL. IT IS GOING TO BE VERY, VERY HUMID AGA
