we are in the 40s in cleveland. it's chilly out there, but no rain or anything for your morning commute. you should be just fine. i'll give you the green light there. midday commute, evening commute, it all looks dry. you need the sunglasses today. it's a sunny day, and our satellite and radar shows up completely employment. nothing going on out there. just a gorgeous day as we ease back into the work week. teps today look like this, 30s by 9:00 we hit 52 and 64 midday and an afternoon high around 3:00 of 68. we're pretty far above average. the average high this time of year only in the middle 50s. so we're overshooting that this afternoon. a little fog west of cleveland this morning. that should lift by mid-morning giving way to sunny skies for the whole day and clear skies tonight as well. the hour-by-hour rain chance
6:18 am
there. i think election day could bring a little rain. let's talk about tomorrow's forecast a little more closely. morning forecast looks good. lots of sun, but as we progress through the day, clouds will increase and then i think by about 4:00 or 5:00, rain will move in from our west. i don't expect any thunderstorms or severe weather, but i do think the rain could slow us down on the roads. evening commute and those that plan to maybe swing by the polls after work. that's when i expect the rain to come in. 50 at 8:00 tomorrow morning and highs tomorrow in the lower 60s. we'll be just a touch cooler tomorrow, and then we get even cooler for wednesday. look at that. 52 on wednesday afternoon. the rain that moves in tomorrow afternoon late, remember, this is 4:00, 5:00 tomorrow, those showers are going to hang around through tomorrow night. then we might even see a little lingering rain wednesday
6:19 am
should be dry, and then i think we'll get through most of thursday and friday dry, too. look what happens on friday night. that is veterans day, by the way. a little rain moving in overnight, and it will be cold enough that it might even mix with the first snowflakes of the season. no impact here. it's not going to slow you down on the roads or anything. just going to be chilly this weekend, laura. we're only in the 40s most of the weekend. >> laura: brr. quite a change from this one, right? this is a changor you can expect some traffic delays all week this week. water crews on the scene out there on brecksville road just to the south of rockside road fixing a water main break. two to three lanes of northbound route 21 will be closed to traffic. in the meanwhile use east pleasant valley road as your reroute. all right. we're going to head to the maps now. things looking perfect all across the area in terms of highways. the commutes look really good. straight up 77 from akron,
6:20 am
construction, though. lots of construction projects, all these crews are out here trying to wrap up projects and get them done before we get to that wintertime. construction on canal road, right under the innerbelt bridge, or it would take you under it. this week both monday and wednesday they're going to close from 9:00 in the morning until 3:00 in the afternoon. that's what takes you from ohio city to tremont and vice versa. you can use 14th street as a strongsville to cleveland and akron into downtown, everything looks very, very green. we take you to that water main break in independence again coming up at 6:33. brian. >> brian: 6:20. another -- well, there's a lot of things i'd like to say about how the browns played yesterday. in four minutes bob golic will join us as we try to digest that awful game against the cowboys. we're looking for positives.
