I'm up to 72, and I'm even seeing a peak of sun here. A few scattered storms are out there where enough heating has occurred behind the main area of stratiform rain that is now to our south. Look for some patchy fog tonight and in the morning along with humid conditions. Just a small shower / t-stor...

It looks like the boys are done now doing storm damage surveys and what not from the 5-7/8 severe wx event. The tornado count in our forecast area for that event is now up to 14! Damage paths, EF ratings etc. are all now listed if you're interested in checking it out. https://www.weather.gov/iln/202...

I found this on the NWS ILN website that in the state of Ohio, there is a partnership between the Ohio EMA, NWS ILN, and Lamar. Lamar are the folks who do the electronic billboards along highways, It looks like they have created an Ohio Traveler Alert System to warn drivers of bad weather. I've seen...

68 at CVG as of 2pm with partly cloudy skies. 0.10" for total rainfall for the day thus far.

I agree Tim...thinking SE of the I-71 corridor is a decent guess at this time. Last I checked, CVG had 0.09" as of 12pm so not a lot of rain for parts of the local area. Nice to see the I-70 Crew, like Bo, cashing in nicely earlier this morning.

Steady light rain for most folks and of course a few pockets of heavy rain and that will be the story for the afternoon and evening. Heading into summer and the drought update across the USA is really good and the southwest has some problems but then it is very spotty across the remainder of the US...

An update from the boys as of 9:27am: .NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/... Morning update was centered on trying to give a more accurate positioning of the precip chances over the CWA for today. Limited thunder to just a slight chance given very few cg strikes over a several hour period, concentr...

Nice Bo! Glad to see you cashing in nicely! CVG is up to 0.07" now as of 10am with the Boone Co mesonet site checking in with 0.09"

Hey Les and again we are talking a few degrees and there will be some nice ridging ahead of the next system which is another reason severe chances look higher. Indy and Louisville should no doubt hit 85 and above and of course Louisville could be near 90. I am going 80-82 Sunday and Monday and then...

Great Post Les and looks like a rainy morning with varying degrees of intensity but everyone should get wet. The Sunday-Tuesday is a preview of early summer though I believe some of the models are just a tad to high on temps with all the vegetation around and probably able to see a build of clouds ...

As of 8am, CVG is up to 0.05"

Good morning all! We have another wet AM commute in progress as a batch of rain with a few embedded t-storms moves thru. Nothing is severe at all. Only a hundredth or two has fallen over CVG / My Hood's area thus far. We should see a break around 10-12pm with re-development possible esp S of the Riv...

79 here for today. Rain chances look to be highest tomorrow, Saturday and then for next week, Tues night into Wed. Not sure yet for the timing on next week's system. It could be after midnight Tues night or wait until Wed morning. We shall see once we get closer.

74 / 58 at CVG as of the 2pm reading. Probably can tack in a bit more for the temp for the 3pm obs. Anyway, a nice day today before we see how much rain we get tomorrow into Sat.

That's fair Tim. It is basically almost the same call.

I'm going with the notion of a pretty good soaking Fri afternoon / overnight with lingering action on Saturday. I think 0.50 to 1" is a good range. Some will see less and others more of course as is usually the case when t-storms are involved.

By the way.... mid June (a month from now) is when we typically avg our first 90 degree day high for the season. This is for Cincinnati. Something to think about for those planning to enter the contest.

Tim... We are definitely making up for lost time in the rainfall dept. as the last couple of years have been dry in some areas in the OV. No shortage of rain for anybody (that I can recall) at this point in time. The action looks to continue as we've been talking about. You know the old saying... ra...

In the long term, not only is the active pattern going to continue, but Trev and other pro Mets as well, have been banging the severe wx drum pretty hard especially towards the later portion of May and into early June. The CIPS analog guidance, CFS, and other long term models are all suggesting this...

Good morning all... a lovely Thursday on tap! Then as you know, we are wet Friday and part of Sat. A nice Sunday into early next week before POPS return. I know I sound like a broken record day after day but when you're in a drought, or in this case, an active pattern, whatcha see is whatcha get! :l...

In the short term, Friday and Saturday still looks to offer up a wet period. I am going dry Sunday and Monday of next week but more POPS are required from Tuesday into Wed of next week as the active pattern shows no signs of letting up. It's a bit early for a solid Memorial Day weekend forecast but...

What else is new... we lose 2-0 and the series. OFF today and it's time for an out west trip. We play the AZ Diamondbacks Fri night at 9:40pm with Tarik Skubal.

73 so far here today with not much to report in the rainfall dept which again I am totally cool with. Most everything I have seen has been highly localized. You either get hammered or get little to nothing. That has been the trend I have noticed today.
