...FLASH FLOOD WATCH TODAY AND EARLY TONIGHT FOR WEST VIRGINIA EXCEPT
FOR THE SOUTHERN MOUNTAINS AND GREENBRIER VALLEY...

VERY ACTIVE WEATHER IN STORE TODAY FOR THE CENTRAL APPALACHIANS. SHOWERS
AND THUNDERSTORMS HAVE BEEN RUMBLING DURING THE NIGHT ACROSS SOUTHERN
OHIO AND THE NORTHERN PART OF WEST VIRGINIA. THE SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS WILL CONTINUE TODAY FOR THE MOUNTAINS AND WESTERN SLOPES
OF WEST VIRGINIA WITH LOCALLY HEAVY DOWNPOURS. RAINFALL RATES MAY BE 1
OR 2 INCHES PER HOUR. IF A SERIES OF HEAVY THUNDERSTORMS MOVE OVER YOUR
AREA TODAY, BE ON THE ALERT FOR THE POSSIBILITY OF FLASH FLOODING. IN
ADDITION, WE ARE ALSO CONCERNED ABOUT THE POSSIBILITY OF SEVERE
THUNDERSTORMS TODAY.

THE SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL GRADUALLY SUBSIDE TONIGHT SO THAT
PATCHY DENSE FOG WILL FORM AFTER MIDNIGHT.

THE WEATHER MAPS THIS MORNING SHOWED A STATIONARY FRONT FROM NORTHERN
VIRGINIA, THE NORTHERN PANHANDLE OF WEST VIRGINIA, INTO A WEAK LOW NEAR
CINCINNATI OHIO, THEN CONTINUING THROUGH SOUTHERN ILLINOIS. A SERIES OF
UPPER AIR DISTURBANCES WILL MOVE THROUGH THE OHIO VALLEY TODAY AND
INTERACT WITH THIS FRONT AND CAUSE A GOOD CHANCE OF SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS. THE AIR MASS OVER OUR REGION IS VERY MOIST AND UNSTABLE.
THIS WILL HELP TO FUEL THE SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS.

DO NOT EXPECT TO SEE ANY RELIEF FROM THE HEAT AND HUMIDITY BECAUSE THE
COLD FRONT WILL HAVE A HARD TIME MOVING THROUGH WEST VIRGINIA. THUS,
VERY WARM AND HUMID WEATHER IS ON TAP FOR THE WEEKEND.
