Cleveland, OH

After a brief reprieve Tuesday, the heat is turning back up as we head into the Fourth and beyond. Winds stay onshore for one more day Wednesday, which will keep temperatures “only” in the upper 80s to low 90s. Mid-70s dewpoints, though, will make it feel like the upper 90s during the height of the afternoon. Ridging building in aloft will keep a lid on any shower and thunderstorm development.

Rest of the week: Heat’s turning back up

The earliest and strongest CAT 4 hurricane has formed in an area that typically doesn’t see that activity in June, likely thanks to above-average sea temperatures. This storm may hit Jamaica on its way to the Yucatan Peninsula. After that, models diverge with some bringing it to the Texas coastline. While we watch that, a decent cold front will work through Oklahoma on our July 4th holiday causing some Mother Nature fireworks of her own.

About 80 people overtook Aurora’s City Council meeting Monday, causing the mayor to recess the meeting three times in an effort to bring about order. The council then agreed to extend public invited to be heard beyond the one-hour time limit. The speakers showed up to chide the City Council for not punishing the officer that shot and killed Kilyn Lewis. Lewis was a suspect in a crime which is why police approached him. Body camera footage released by the Aurora Police Department showed Lewis did not have a gun and repeatedly yelled “I don’t have nothing!” with his hands in the air. Despite this, officer Michael Dieck killed him with a single shot from his rifle. Lewis never had more than a cell phone in his hand, the video showed.
