DAYTON — Good evening to you on this Saturday. Meteorologist Nick Dunn here with you to update the forecast on what has been a nice day. Clouds gave way to sun and we climbed into the 60s and 70s for high temperatures.

Tonight will be a bit cooler with a few passing clouds and lows in the middle 40s. A bit of a breeze from the northeast will make it feel refreshing.

For Sunday we start with a few clouds before turning mostly sunny. Highs will top out in the upper 60s and lower 70s to end a quiet weekend of weather. Things look to change a bit into late Monday night.

The Storm Prediction Center has us highlighted in a Level 1 (Marginal) to Level 2 (Slight) Risk for severe storms for the nighttime hours on Monday into early Tuesday. Being a few days out, the risk areas are subject to change. A line of storms weakening as it moves in could bring some strong winds as the main hazard.
