 .DISCUSSION...
 It will be much warmer today, with many locations rising into the 
 80s outside of the mountains. However, showers and storms are 
 expected to develop by evening as a cold front approaches the area. 
 Some of these storms could be strong to severe with large hail and 
 damaging winds, particularly in Southeast Ohio and the Mid Ohio 
 Valley region. 
 
 More seasonable temperatures are expected for Monday behind the 
 front, along with a brief period of dry weather through mid week.
