A chilly, rainy Friday will bring a chilly start to May in Northeast Ohio, with temperatures expected to reach around 50 degrees. The National Weather Service in Cleveland expects widespread rain throughout the day, with showers becoming more scattered later in the day. This could cause frost or freezing conditions both Friday night and Saturday night, and could damage sensitive plants and early-season gardens. Forecasters predict that colder inland spots, especially rural areas and valleys, could fall into the lower 30s or even the upper 20s. The weather service noted that the timing of this freeze is unusual for this point in spring for Northeast Ohio. However, temperatures are expected to return to normal early next week, with warmer temperatures expected.
