Cincinnati, OH – A Flood Watch remains in effect across southeastern Indiana, northern Kentucky, and southwestern Ohio through 11 AM Monday as heavy rain raises the risk of flash flooding in these areas. The National Weather Service warns that excessive rainfall overnight may lead to rapid runoff, causing rivers, creeks, and streams to flood. Travelers in affected areas are urged to stay cautious, as flooding is possible along low-lying and flood-prone locations.
According to the National Weather Service, counties in Ohio, Indiana, and Kentucky — including Hamilton, Clermont, Boone, and Franklin — are expected to see heavy rain through the early hours of Monday morning. While exact rainfall amounts are uncertain, localized flash flooding is likely, with the most significant impacts expected in low-lying areas. Flood-prone regions such as roadways and rural routes are particularly at risk.
Drivers are advised to avoid crossing flooded areas and to remain alert for road closures, especially along the Ohio River and tributaries. In addition, those in the affected counties should keep an eye on future updates in case flash flood warnings are issued. Emergency management agencies are closely monitoring conditions.
This Flood Watch is expected to remain in effect until 11 AM Monday. Affected regions should prepare for possible swift changes, including additional warnings as conditions evolve.
