Federal Declaration Update: We are happy for the 7 counties to receive help and still hoping to also be included as winter is coming and some families need furnaces replaced. The remaining counties in the request (including Logan and 15 others) are still under review.

"There is a very significant gap between what climate science actually says and what you've been told it says." Steve Koonin spent 50 years in science at Caltech, BP, and the US Department of Energy. He argues that a generation has been taught to fear the future when the scientific evidence paints a more nuanced picture. Watch the full ARC 2026 speech

It will be hot and humid for the next couple of days which will result in heat indices around 100. This could lead to heat exhaustion. The heat index will not be quite as high late in the week as clouds increase and the chance of showers and storms returns.

Stay safe out there! Very hot and humid this week. Drinks lots of water, take breaks to cool off if you need to be outside during the heat of the day, and check on your neighbors.

Heat dome builds across the region today. With the humid air mass also intact, 'feels-like' temps will range from the middle 90s to lower 100s during the hottest part of the day. Additionally, overnight lows will generally remain in the mid-70s, providing little to no relief.
Heat index values ranging from the middle 90s in central Ohio to lower 100s near the Tristate.

We continue to watch for the potential for heavy rain and flooding later this week. Rain Thursday night into Friday could result in some minor flooding. But it will also make the ground saturated for possibly heavier rain Friday night.
Multiple rounds of rainfall will occur from Thursday night into Saturday morning. Some of the rain could be heavy at times, especially Friday night. This rain will bring a threat for flooding -- overland, along small streams, and on rivers. While the flooding threat is area wide, the greatest impacts are likely in southeast Indiana, southwest Ohio, and parts of northern Kentucky. Stay weather and water aware. Keep up to date with the latest forecasts. Make sure you have a plan if this rain does lead to flooding.
