After a brief spell of late-summer heat, a couple of rounds of thunderstorms rolled through Cleveland and northern Ohio followed by some of the coolest weather of the season so far.
A change is on the way after building heat and humidity Wednesday challenged daily record levels.
The combination of temperature, sunshine, humidity and other factors aided temperatures in reaching as high as 95 degrees in some of the urban areas for a few hours during the afternoon.

Locally Severe Storms: I-90 Wednesday, I-95 Thursday
One or more rounds of thunderstorms are forecasted from Wednesday afternoon into Thursday. Any storm can be locally strong with blinding downpours and gusty winds. A few areas could be hit with travel delays and sporadic power disruptions.
The storms will break the heat.
By Thursday night and Friday, Canadian air will settle in over the region with much lower temperatures and humidity, as well as a gusty breeze. Some people will feel refreshed, while others may mind the sudden chill.
The pattern Friday into the weekend could yield some of the lowest temperatures of the season so far for the metro area and the region in general. High temperatures will only be in the 60s in many locations.
