Toledo weekend forecast. Sat: 66F and falling, early AM t-showers. Sun: 50F, PM sprinkles/flurries.
WEEKEND FORECAST: Watch for early AM thundershowers pushing in from the west (likely staying below severe levels), followed by dropping temps after midday as the cold front passes. That paves the way for a cool Sunday near 50Β° in the Glass City (few late PM sprinkles/flurries).

Storm clouds over a bare farmer's field.
Caleb Weller caught Wednesday's sinister-looking sky from Alvada (SW Seneca County). This cell produced 1" to 1.5" hail farther downwind into Seneca County, with several power poles down in Tiffin from likely straight-line winds.
