This Hazardous Weather Outlook is for east central Ohio, western
Pennsylvania, and northern West Virginia.

.DAY ONE...Today and tonight.

There is potential for a narrow corridor of training storms producing
locally heavy rain overnight tonight that could result in flash
flooding, especially if it occurs over areas with still saturated
grounds.

If confidence increases in a more widespread flash flood threat and
confidence in location of that corridor, a Flood Watch may be needed.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Thursday through Tuesday.

Lingering heavy rain Thursday morning could maintain the marginal
Flood Risk before exiting the region by Thursday evening. The
probability for widespread hazardous weather thereafter is low.


.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

Spotter activation is not expected at this time.
