CLEVELAND, Ohio – Make sure to grab that extra heavy jacket today in Cleveland, because a blast of Arctic air will dip wind chills to 3 degrees during your morning commute, and to 5 degrees later tonight.
Surprisingly, but happily, dry skies will lead to a day of partly sunny conditions, so at least that will help it feel (just a bit) warmer for the start to your weekend.

The How:
A high pressure system pushing over Northeast Ohio Friday will dry skies out, leaving them mostly sunny. This high pressure is centered north, and since winds blow clockwise around high pressure systems, this will bring in a day of Arctic air and bitter temperatures.
Usually, westerly winds and cold temperatures means a day of lake effect snow, but the high pressure is relatively strong, so the air is just too dry to spark any showers.
