Today was officially our first 90° day of July! It's been over a month since we hit 90°. Humidity didn't feel too bad. What'd you think?

Another round of showers and thunderstorms will move in late tonight through daybreak Monday! Severe weather is NOT expected, as the atmosphere is still pretty stable from the previous rounds of rain earlier. Hour-by-hour timing coming up at 10 and 11!

Heavy thunderstorm moving east toward Put-In-Bay! Could clip Catawba as well. After this storm moves out, the Toledo metro will likely be dry for the rest of the evening.

A few strong to severe storms may impact locations southwest of Toledo. ⛈️ The overall severe risk will remain scattered with mostly just some downpours and rumbles of thunder, but a few strong winds may be possible, mainly along the line between Fort Wayne to Lima and south.

Our next rain chance will come from the remnants of this weakening line of storms near Milwaukee. Latest data brings these showers to our area sometime Sunday morning. The overall severe weather risk is low, but a few gusty storms are possible. Forecast coming up at 11!

Beryl has travelled over 5,000 miles, impacting areas from the Caribbean to Canada! Quite the voyage of all that tropical moisture. The impacts will clear out of our area tonight as some more normal summertime weather returns into the weekend.

Beryl's remnants have sparked a severe weather outbreak in central New York, including a Tornado Warning near Ithaca where I went to college! It's not too often you get tropical moisture and intense wind shear in New England. No weather worries here at home!

ALL CLEAR from severe weather for the night. Still some steady rain and a few rumbles of thunder southeast of the Maumee River, but nothing strong or severe.

Tornado Watch for southern Ohio has been cancelled! Biggest concern overnight will be torrential rain, though the flood risk should be greatest west of Toledo. Still can't rule out a couple stronger storms for northwest Ohio through 2 AM or so.

No active warnings, but watching an area of broad rotation in the atmosphere from Beryl's remnants to the southeast of Lima. Tornado threat is low, and radar data isn't the best in this area. At the very least, this will bring some heavy rain to Hancock County!

Midnight radar check: Steady rain now moving into northwest Ohio with a few thunderstorms far south of Toledo. Still looking at widespread 1-2" of rain overnight. Isolated strong storm threat diminishing.

Quiet across northwest Ohio as of 9:30 PM, but heavier rain and a few storms will move in closer to midnight! The greatest severe risk will be contained to our south. While a few strong, rotating storms may continue into central Ohio, the overall risk is low. Updates to come!

While steady rain will impact northwest Ohio, the risk of flooding will remain west of us and severe weather threat far south of the area. Rainfall will pick up near or after midnight, and a few thunderstorms may develop south of Toledo. Latest forecast live on @WTOL11Toledo!
