Flood — Tuscarawas, OH

Jun 18, 2019

A quasi-stationary frontal boundary set up across Ohio and Pennsylvania on the 17th, and wavered about the region until it was kicked off to the east by a stronger frontal boundary late on the 20th. Flooding and flash flooding remained a concern through the period given an ideal setup for training storms, as well as efficient rainfall production associated with observed high PWATs and deeper warm cloud depths. Storm total rainfall amounts of 2 to 4 inches were not uncommon in east-central Ohio
