A perfect fall day consists of cool, crisp mornings and pleasantly warm afternoons. And today checks every box across the Tri-State. After morning lows dipped into the 40s, the afternoon brings plenty of sunshine mixed with a few passing clouds, keeping highs in the low 70s.
You’ll notice a slight chill in the air as winds shift from the south to the northwest, a sign of a weak front sliding through the area. The front will pass with little to no rain, only reinforcing that cool, refreshing fall feel.
It’s a picture-perfect setup for a busy fall weekend across Cincinnati, from several outdoor festivals to the Bearcats home game on Saturday. Comfortable afternoons and cool evenings will make it easy to spend plenty of time outside.
Fall colors are taking their time this year! Warm & dry conditions have kept most leaves green or falling prematurely due to the drought. BUT, cooler nights and mild days could save the day with fall foliage arriving late October thru early November. 🍃🍂🍁
