More details on Friday's storms below.
As for tonight, a front moving south through the Tri-State has brought a few cloud and winds have turned to the north behind the front. That drives in colder air overnight! Temperatures will be down into the upper 20s and low 30s. With lighter winds there will be a chance that we see some frost as well.
Clear skies on the way overnight and winds from the north, that means we are in for another chilly night! Patchy frost will be possible in areas that see lighter winds. #WCPO @WCPO @CincyWX #Ohwx #INwx #NKYwx pic.twitter.com/XtB69et5JK

Thursday morning starts cold, but we will warm to 53 by the noon hour as the Opening Day Parade kicks off. From there we warm to 60 degrees at 4 p.m. for the 1st pitch! We are expecting sunshine and light winds. Talk about a PERFECT day for baseball. From there, clouds build overnight into Friday.
The next weather story is focused on Friday and Saturday. The Storm Prediction Center has the Tri-State in a Slight Risk (2 of 5) for severe weather. Showers will be be here to start the morning, maybe even a few storms. This will be part of two to three rounds of shower and storms on Friday. Winds will also pick up from the southwest at 15 to 20 mph, gusts of 25 to 35 mph as well. A bigger push of showers and storms finally passes Friday night into Saturday morning as the cold front moves through the Ohio Valley. That is what brings the biggest threat for severe weather. Right now, damaging winds are the main issue with this line of storms, but isolated rotations could lead to spin-up tornadoes. Right now, the best timing for this is between 10 p.m. and 1 a.m. Saturday.
Rain should end before sunrise on Saturday but we'll be left with very windy conditions again. Winds will be in from the west at 20 to 30 mph, gusting to 40 to 50 mph.
