Severe Threat Diminishing But Storms Still Expected

A vigorous cold front will move through the region Thursday night.  A line of storms is expected to develop west of the area, just ahead of the cold front, and head east.

A line of showers and storms will move through the Ohio Valley ahead of strong cold front tonight. While the severe threat with these storms is diminishing, a few strong storms will still be possible as powerful low and mid level winds will overspread the area.

Overall, most places can expect between 0.75" and 1.5" of rainfall through the event.

More from the National Weather Service.
