We are watching for a band of strong to severe storms. All threats are possible with this system: flooding, strong wind, hail and tornado risk. This line will be near Central Ohio around 1-2 a.m.

Tracking another wave of heavy rain and storms tonight. Biggest threat will be heavy rainfall (1-2″+ in a short period of time). Multiple severe thunderstorm warnings likely. High winds/hail. Storms will move faster which should limit rainfall vs yesterday.

We received anywhere from 4″-8″ in just a few hours, which produced a lot of flooding across Northeast Ohio.
