A cold front will be passing through Ohio during the day on Friday bringing with it showers and thunderstorms. The good news is that severe weather does not look possible at this time. The bad news is that lightning will be possible with these storms, so you will need to stay weather aware if you are at the track. Winds will be quite breezy as well, averaging 15-20 MPH out of the southwest. The afternoon high should top out in the upper 60s to just at 70 degrees, and the chance of rain is 70%.
Once the cold front passes, the remainder of the weekend looks fantastic. Saturday will be mostly sunny with the high reaching the upper 60s to just at 70 degrees again. Winds will be out of the west at 5-10 MPH. Another cold front will move through the state late on Saturday that will bring even more dry air and cooler temperatures on Sunday. May need a jacket to start the day as temperatures are expected to be in the mid-40s, and the afternoon high will only reach the lower 60s. Winds will be out of the north to northwest at 5-10 MPH.
