Rain Timing & Amounts

April 9th Drought Monitor Update

Warming temperatures are expected through Friday. A cold front will approach from the northwest tonight and move southeast across the area on Friday, resulting in periods of scattered showers and possibly a few thunderstorms through Friday.

As of the end of March, most of Northwest Ohio remained in drought ranging from moderate to extreme severity (D0 to D3), with abnormally dry conditions (D0) extending east across parts of the area. After all the rain and flooding we've seen since then, most of the area is no longer in drought. A small portion of Northwest Ohio remains outlined in conditions ranging from abnormally dry (D0) to moderate drought (D1) where longer term deficits from last summer and fall remain.
