Flooding

The greatest two day rainfall amounts occurred across portions of northwest Ohio where 3 to 6 inches of rain fell in Henry, Paulding, Putnam, and Defiance counties. Several road closures were reported across these counties.  Heavy rain also caused significant river rises at on the Eel River at North Manchester where moderate flooding is forecast.  The storms produced some sub-severe wind gusts of 35 to 50 mph, with the strongest winds reported across the Fort Wayne area.

Environment

Several short waves tracked across the region June 29th and 30th in advance of a cold front.  These short waves interacted with a very moist air mass to produce pockets of heavy rainfall.  Little in the way of severe weather was noted these two days due to the marginal nature of the instability and wind shear profiles. The biggest impacts were from heavy rain which led to flash flooding across portions of northwest Ohio.
