Cincinnati, OH – A Flood Watch remains in effect for several regions in Southern Ohio, Indiana, and Kentucky due to ongoing risks of flooding from excessive rainfall. The alert, issued by the National Weather Service Wilmington, warns residents of potential flooding in rivers, creeks, streams, and low-lying areas.
According to the National Weather Service, the watch is active through Sunday morning, with multiple rounds of rain expected to impact the region. The heaviest rainfall is anticipated to occur on Saturday night. Affected areas include cities such as Cincinnati, Dayton, and Louisville, along with smaller communities in nearby counties.
