A 10TV Weather Impact Alert Day has been issued for Saturday afternoon due to the threat of strong to severe thunderstorms. A Wind Advisory has been issued by the National Weather Service for central Ohio ahead of an afternoon and evening round of storms. The advisory will remain in effect until 6 a.m. Sunday. Morning showers and storms brought a good deal of rain, thunder, lightning, and wind. While we will experience a lull in storm action through the early afternoon, a second round of showers and storms will likely develop later Saturday. These storms will likely impact central Ohio during the late afternoon and evening, lasting into the morning hours of Sunday. Most storms will not reach severe limits due to a lack of available energy, but because of the strong wind field and low pressure to our west, storms still have a chance to produce brief gusts of damaging wind, small hail. and/or a brief tornado. The largest concern with these storms will come in the form of potential heavy flooding. The highest risk for flooding and standing water will occur after 8 pm, continuing through overnight, but tapering off Sunday morning. With this system, we are expecting around 1 to 2+ inches of new rainfall around Central Ohio, with the hardest hit areas going over the 2 inch mark. This has prompted a level 1 of 4 risk for flooding across most of the region, with higher flooding risks to the southwest of Columbus. In addition to the threat of strong winds with our storms, winds in general will be very strong this weekend. These winds at times on Saturday will see gusts up to and over 40 mph. Following the storms Saturday, temperatures will start to fall heading into Sunday. We will reach 60 degrees early in the day, but temps will fall into the 50s during the afternoon, and back into the 30s for Monday morning.
