Severe storms could bring damaging winds, torrential rain to Northeast Ohio

CLEVELAND, Ohio — Northeast Ohio may make it through much of Monday without a thunderstorm, but a hot and humid day could give way to a noisy night. People walk through the rain in the Dumbo neighborhood in Brooklyn as severe storms move through the New York area on July 21, 2026 in New York City. Spotty rain showers and a potential thunderstorm are predicted to begin Monday afternoon before a week of more rain and storms.
