FORECAST DISCUSSION:

Happy Wednesday!

Flood alerts continue for Central Ohio this morning, following several days of heavy rainfall across the region. Totals generally equated to 2-4", but some more localized spots saw totals above that. Expect ponding on some roads, and especially near rivers and creeks. If you see high water, turn around and find a new route.

Luckily, rain is getting much lighter. We start our Wednesday off on a dry note, but we will see scattered, light rain showers this afternoon and evening. We'll also be breezy, with highs only reaching the middle 40s this afternoon.

Going overnight, a few snow showers mix in, as temperatures tumble. For Thursday, we start the morning with a bit of a wintry mix, before a transition back to rain showers during the afternoon. Highs remain in the middle 40s.

By Friday, we're looking at more isolated shower activity, mainly during the morning. Highs stick in the middle 40s.

We're much nicer by this weekend, with highs near 50 Saturday, with a few clouds out.

By Sunday, highs warm to the upper 50s, with even more sunshine. Then just an isolated shower chance late Sunday.
