Hi Mike, yes, thankful that a lot of the Tri-state and MV "dodged the bullet."

I saw this report from Germantown ...

LOU has issued a high wind warning for their CWA until 7pm. This is for 50-60 mph wind gusts since skies are sunny down there. Same for my hood with regards to sunny skies. Winds 40-50 mph after the line of storms moves thru is likely for the rest of the daylight hours.

Dayton Skywarn Facebook page posted a photo of a small rope tornado taken from an amateur radio near Germantown, OH.

EDIT: I found the photo:

These storms were no joke, another hour or two later in the day and or sunshine and it would have been substantial. Pretty impressive nonetheless.

I’ve had .4 of rain since midnight.

Saw some pretty good damage pics posted on Facebook from up in Butler Co. near the Madison Township area. NWS ILN will probably have to do a storm damage survey tomorrow to see if it was a tornado or just straight line winds.

Got this picture off of facebook. This is commercial point, Ohio

Pouring rain with wind up to 40mph gusts now. Didn't have these type of wind with the warnings earlier.

This was taken about a half mile south of the Middletown Regional Hospital looking due west over I-75
