The line is weakening a bit up here. I think it’s outrunning the best dynamics.

Yeah, it’s getting that 06z HRRR messy look. Have a couple of cells that have popped to the SW of here, but they’re behaving. Also another weakening sign, infrequent intra-cloud lightning with soft thunder. Sounds like one of those noise makers for sleeping.

I still got a good front-end thump of 50-55 mph winds. It knocked the power out at work for a few seconds before the generator kicked in.

Pretty spicy locally. Pockets of widespread tree damage. I lost a medium tree. Neighbor across the street lost a couple. Another had large tree hit their garage.

Tornado warning south of Findlay. Line approaching I-75

Cell in SW Wayne county starting to have that look to it

[Chinook]

I saw a weak wall cloud

Not much going on, too crazy, after that. Just heavy rain, trees in town didn't shake violently or anything. Not a lot of lightning

I would say we saw 50-55 mph winds as it came through.  Tornado warning just to my SE.

anybody want to play a ball game? Nope? Raining everywhere?

Prob gonna end up with 7+ inches of rain today. Been awhile I seen flooding like I've seen today around here.

I am surprised how well that line held together. It's still holding together moving into Pennsylvania. The HRRR kept showing much less of a bow for northeast Ohio.
