UPDATED 11:25 AM: Rain In the Area Now, Will Remain Rest of the Day

11:15 AM CVG 74º, Rain, Fog

UPDATE BELOW FOR HEAT EMERGENCY, FLOOD ADVISORY INFORMATION

Rain moved into the southwestern part of the area this morning and has spread northeast across the entire area.

We can expect rain, heavy at times, to impact the tri-state through the day, but NO SEVERE WEATHER is anticipated as of right now. However...flood problems could occur as a direct result of so much rain and in fact a FLOOD ADVISORY is in effect for Pike and Scioto Counties east of the Cincinnati metro until 12:45 PM. UPDATE 11:25 AM: A NEW FLOOD ADVISORY HAS BEEN ISSUED FOR ADAMS, BROWN AND HIGHLAND COUNTIES IN SOUTHWEST OHIO UNTIL 3:15 PM EDT.

Rain will diminish in coverage tonight. Tomorrow looks HOT and a heat advisory could be issued by the National Weather Service office in Wilmington this afternoon.

UPDATE 11:25 AM: A HEAT EMERGENCY has been issued by the City of Cincinnati for Wednesday through Friday as heat index values will easily exceed 95 degrees and may exceed 100 degrees.

NOTE: There are 5000 people without power in parts of Hamilton County right now. Please remember to treat intersections where the stoplights are out as a FOUR WAY STOP until further notice, and check on your neighbors who may have serious medical conditions that require the use of electricity to power any devices. It's unclear when power will be restored.
