The rain has ended but the flooding will continue. At my Cheviot 3W site I had a 3 day storm total of 4.16 inches of rain with a February total to date now at 8.24 inches. A winter which had been running a bit below normal in precipitation is now well above normal.
Expect a period of strong wind Sunday morning in Cincinnati, followed by a couple days of cooler and dryer weather. Another less robust weather system will bring more rain later this week. Here is the Wednesday-Friday rainfall outlook:
The Flood Warning continues for the Ohio River at Cincinnati until further notice. At 6 AM the stage was 59.8 feet. Flood stage is 52 feet. Moderate flooding is occurring and is forecast to continue. The river will rise to near 60.6 feet by this afternoon. The river will then begin falling, but remain above flood stage for the next 5 days. At stages near 61 feet, flooding worsens in the East End, as well as along the riverfront. Pete Rose Way becomes flooded and Kellogg Road flooding worsens. Homes and businesses in the East End and California are significantly flooded. Much of Route 52 continues to flood between Cincinnati and New Richmond. Backwater flooding up the Little Miami River affects Anderson Township up to Newtown. Low-lying roads in Newport, Ludlow and Bromley, Kentucky flood, as well as portions of Lawrenceburg and Aurora, Indiana.
...A PERIOD OF STRONG WINDS EXPECTED THIS MORNING... Winds will turn to the west and will gust to around 40 mph later this morning with the passage of a cold front. Unsecured outdoor items may be blown around. High profile vehicles should use caution. $$
