beth mc -- beth has a look at the forecast. >> beth: our first alert outlook right now, a yellow warning which means not severe. however, this is going to start on tuesday afternoon and possibly into the weekend. we will be watching out for heavy rain and we will be turning dangerously hot. we kind of have a couple of things we will be watching. tomorrow, the hour by hour, we start off absolutely fine in the low 70s. you will need sunglasses to get you to work. and then in the afternoon everyone will feel the change. the heat and the humidity will be back and some of you will see some storms in your backyard. most areas report going to -- aren't let me just tell you some of these future view totals for the rain that is coming up are shocking. i'll have that up next. ramona. >> romona: follow the latest conditions with the cleveland 19 news weather app for your smartphone or tablet. the heat and the humidity can be tough on your electric bill. you probably have a fan or your air conditioning running right now. >> dan: hopefully it is fatherly cool in there tonight. we were wondering how d

beth mccleod in the weather center with the latest. >> beth: be careful what you wish for. over the weekend a flashflood watch has been issued. we are looking for any thunderstorms that could come rolling through kind of like what we have seen, but from lot of water with them. could see rainfall totals up from 1 to 3 inches. and some isolated storms could carry as much as 5 inches rain. these really begin eight afternoon and carrying us through saturday night and sunday evening and what we will feel really concerned about is the rapidly rising water along the roadsides and water covering the roads. we haven't seen a flashflood watch in a long time. from awsh beulah to mor row nash county all the way to cincinnati all because the storm coming our way. you can see it clearly illustrated by the liven showers and storms out toward chicago going all the way through illinois. this system has not moved but just a couple of miles since 6 o'clock and because of that put down so much rain. flood warning boxes out in the area. this is all coming toward us say about sunday -- saturday

>>beth: not a lot. it is definitely spotty in nature but if you got one of those thunderstorms that came through, you knew about it. it was quick moving, let down a lot of rain instantly. winds picked up. 10:00 a.m. we have got i think the storms right now. those will fizzle over the next hour, even if we see any more. it's just spotty rain. but heavy rain was definitely a little concern for a little bit. you can still see, still dodging the raindrops out there. cuyahoga county is going to start drying out. this is moving along pretty well. definitely making it through parkman, you'll start seeing a little drier air, i put a tracker on this rain shower towards stone, akron, holds together. these are starting to fizzle. we'll see a little bit more of this tomorrow. not a lot but definitely a touch. this is just some reinforcing cold air out in front of it that's going to make an appearance overnight tonight. temperature-wise, most areas will be in the low to mid 60s to get you going. unless you're in one

>> romona: i knew the answer. >> beth: is it ever? i just said wait until tomorrow. >> romona: okay. [ laughing ] >> beth: so you have a couple of minutes. meantime gorgeous. a little breezy along the lakeshore. if you're thinking of going outside tonight and eating outside, do a little dinner outside, beautiful evening. but the increase in the sizzle, that comes back. and with that sizzle and the heat and humidity comes a chance of storms. now, not for this afternoon. not for this evening. not over night. we'll stay on the quiet side. a little more humidity in the air than it was last night sleeping with the windows open. it depends on where you live. inland you'll probably drop into the mid 60s. along the lakeshore, you'll probably stay upper 60s if you're lucky. the wind gust not really a big factor unless you're right along the lakeshore or downtown area. hang on to the napkin. that's all. it's so beautiful. so you can even see our camera just jiggling just a little bit. but as ramona said wh, what are looking out for? it starts t

beth? >> see temperature change much like we were yesterday, toledo seeing the cooler air but chicago and everybody points west, 14? difference. we will be in the same category by tomorrow morning. today transition day. >>> 73? in downtown cleveland and everyone has tribe. >> 11:01 pitch between cory klueber and marcus stonen. bj's jumped on tomlin and five-zero clobbered two-run homer but in the fourth inning indians came right back with five spot. lonnie hissen hall three-run homer capped off the inning and tied it at five but five minutes later edwin carsonion and tony won -- toronto won six-five. >> the guys they pitched tonight were about as good as you're going to see. came them really big innings for them and have good at bats and fought back and gave up the solo and a lot of game left because both bullpens did a really job. >> exciting weekend for the tribe. >> in the park home run was so fantastic. >> what just happened, what happened of just happened. couldn't even talk. >> 100 ye

beth? >> beth: you know, it is a messy afternoon for many people. for people downtown and the people who work downtown will be in for a shock when they head lot of rain and we are currently seeing storms. look at doppler max lit up from avon lake to hudson. lightning tracker on and producing hail and lightning. there's been reports of small hail but not right now. can you see heavy red in downpours along 480 and 80 parma heights by the airport. peninsula seeing big downpours. boston the turnpike. can you see it is tricky trying to make your way home. a lot of itself seeing heavy rain. hudson getting heavy rain from streetsburg -- streetsboro to twinsburg. over by the airport. and systems not moving out as fast as last night and you need an idea where you are going and
