How Did That Mess Miss?

As I prepared to umpire a Junior ACME league game in St. Henry last night, storms on the Radar were brewing and popping up....a massive of  Reds and Yellows appeared to be heading out way....somehow, despite the Reds getting rained out in Cincinnati(only the 5th time in Great American Ballpark history, opened in 2003), and some of the area games getting canceled...my game in St. Henry and son Sam's in Celina, both were spared the area wide heavy rains....

More strong storms maybe heading our way however....

Wednesday June 22nd, first full day of Summer   30% chance of heavy storms late this afternoon, with 40% tonight  High 80  Low of 65

Tomorrow a 60% chance of showers and thundershowers a cooler high of just 72....and by Friday they are calling for a high of just 67 with showers coming to and end late.

One More Round of Storms

West Central Ohio Weather:  5/26/11

Yesterday saw one more, and hopefully final for awhile, round of storms....it was humid, with a mix of clouds and sun for most of the day, but by 4PM storms began brewing in the area, and after a couple of heavy downpours, a Tornado Warming blared out on the Weather Channel.  A funnel cloud had been spotted in extreme southern Mercer County near Burkettsville.  A warning was put out for south Mercer, southwest Auglaize, and northern Darke Counties.  Nothing came out of it thankfully...just more rain.

Overnight saw fog move in and it remains wet and very humid, albeit cooler, at this hour of 10AM EDT this morning.

The Memorial Day Weekend Ahead:

The Holiday Weekend Ahead:

Today, May 27th,  will be cloudy but the showers will end with a High of 64..
Saturday, Partly Cloudy and Warmer High near 77
Sunday, after a 30% chance of a Morning Shower it will be Sunny, Hot, and Humid High of 87
and on Memorial Day Monday a High of 90 with the humidity on the Rise

It looks like Summer is indeed here, for at least a little while.

Enjoy the Holiday Weekend...back later as conditions warrant.

Photos-The Drive-Way in front of the house last evening, after the third and final downpour of the day...and this morning, the damp back yard, under heavy drizzle and foggy, wet, conditions.  Things look to dry off and improve, albeit hot and humid, as the Holiday Weekend moves into play.
