Flash Flood — Medina, OH

Jun 10, 2021

The region was under the influence of a warm, moist airmass due to a southeast CONUS ridge allowing for ample Gulf moisture return northward into the southern Great Lakes. A weak stationary boundary was focused from west to east across northern OH during the afternoon and evening of the 10th. Loosely organized convection formed along the boundary, with efficient warm rain processed due to surface dewpoints near 70F, PWAT values ranging from 1.7 to 1.9 across the region, and modest MLCAPE values
