This should be the top story everywhere tonight. I know there is so much crazy news going on - but this storm will change the landscape in Louisiana forever. Winds are now 150mph, nearly Cat 5. This storm will bring "unsurvivable" storm surge.

We will want to pay close attention to Sunday. It is a bit unclear if the dynamics will spread as far north/east into Ohio. But it certainly appears possible. Could be very active just west of Ohio… and some of that could make it into our area. Stay tuned.

Look at how many more tornadoes have occurred OUTSIDE of the primary "Tornado Alley". Important to note though that some of the reports on this map in OH are from the same tornado. By our count, we've had 28 tornadoes confirmed in Ohio so far this year. We average 21 annually.

I have to say the Advisory vs Warning criteria in Ohio is messed up. I understand the rules, but when its been a few years for such a storm, an "advisory" seems to not represent the potential impact - & could be dangerous to some thinking the storm is no big deal. Soap box over.

Just a reminder for those of you actually wanting storms and severe weather - and saying Ohio always gets 'missed' - Please keep in mind we've had (from last count) 37 tornadoes in 2023 so far... we average 21 annually. SO I think Ohio has had a big year so far.
