SPECIAL WEATHER STATEMENT AND EVENING OHIO WEATHER STORY
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CLEVELAND OH
450 PM EDT TUE JUL 8 1986

A SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH IS IN EFFECT FOR THE EXTREME WEST AND
NORTHWEST COUNTIES OF OHIO UNTIL 10 PM EDT.

THE POTENTIAL FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF STRONG THUNDERSTORMS REACHING
SEVERE CRITERIA ARE FAVORABLE OVER AN AREA FROM CHICAGO TO DETROIT
AND SOUTH ACROSS CENTRAL INDIANA AND EXTREME WESTERN OHIO. LATE THIS
AFTERNOON SEVERAL CLUSTERS OF THUNDERSTORMS HAD DEVELOPED OVER PARTS
OF INDIANA AND NORTHEASTERN ILLINOIS, AND COULD REACH INTO OHIO THIS
EVENING.

A FEW THUNDERSTORMS DEVELOPED OVER EASTERN OHIO THIS AFTERNOON, SOME
OF WHICH HAD APPROACHED SEVERE LIMITS. SMALL HAIL AND GUSTY WINDS
WERE REPORTED OVER PORTIONS OF COLUMBIANA COUNTY AND VICINITY. MUCH
OF TODAY'S ACTIVITY WAS OVER EASTERN OHIO AND WESTERN PENNSYLVANIA,
EAST OF AN AKRON-MASSILLION LINE. NEARLY THREE-QUARTERS /.70/ OF AN
INCH OF RAIN WAS REPORTED AT YOUNGSTOWN THROUGH 2PM.
 <
HOT, HUMID AND HAZY CONTINUED TO DESCRIBE THE WEATHER ELEMENTS OVER
MUCH OF OHIO TODAY. AFTERNOON TEMPERATURES REACHED INTO THE 90 TO
95 DEGREE RANGE UNDER A BLAZING SUN OVER THE SOUTHERN HALF OF THE
STATE, WHILE MID TO UPPER 80S WERE FELT IN THE NORTHERN HALF.

THE GREATEST POTENTIAL FOR SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE TONIGHT
THROUGH WEDNESDAY. A WEAK FRONTAL SYSTEM NORTH OF THE STATE WAS
ALLOWING FOR THE WARM HUMID AIR TO SETTLE OVER NOT ONLY OHIO, BUT OVER
MUCH OF THE REGION. HOWEVER, THE FRONT WILL SLOWLY SLIDE SOUTH ACROSS
OHIO LATE TONIGHT AND WEDNESDAY, BRINGING IN DRIER AND SLIGHTLY COOLER
AIR BY THURSDAY.
