A Flash Flood Warning has been issued for Auglaize and Mercer counties until 9 a.m.

We have the ingredients coming together for some very heavy rainfall in parts of the Miami Valley. A moisture-laden atmosphere combined with a stalled front will set the stage for scattered, but very heavy downpours.
Wherever these storms last for too long, flash flooding may develop.

While the potential is there for some very heavy rainfall totals, keep in mind that these totals will be localized.
Some areas may see 4 inches of rain between now and tomorrow afternoon. Some areas won’t see a drop of rain. It’s a boom-or-bust scenario with this chance for rain.
