Athens OH 7-Day Forecast (updates 4-5 times daily): http://climate.athens.oh.us/Athens-7Day/ 
IF THE POSSIBILITY OF REPETITIVE HEAVIER SHOWERS BECOMES HIGHER
OVER THE SAME STREAM BASINS...A FLASH FLOOD WATCH WOULD BE POSTED
FOR THE MOST VULNERABLE COUNTIES.

..Discussion...

SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS CAN BE EXPECTED TODAY AS A WARM
FRONT MOVES NORTHWARD ACROSS OUR AREA AND AN UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE
PASSES OVERHEAD...WITH THE HIGHEST CHANCES FOR PRECIPITATION COMING
FOR SO UTHEAST OHIO AND NORTHERN WEST VIRGINIA.  ANOTHER ROUND OF
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL MOVE INTO THE AREA THIS EVENING AND
OVERNIGHT AS A LARGE SYSTEM CURRENTLY OVER THE CENTRAL PART OF THE
COUNTRY BEGINS TO AFFECT OUR AREA. SOME STORMS MAY BECOME STRONG...
AND LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL WILL BE POSSIBLE AS WELL. THE BROAD UPPER
LEVEL DISTURBANCE OVER THE CENTRAL PLAINS WILL SLOW ITS
PROGRESSION...WHILE AN ASSOCIATED COLD FRONT MOVES INTO SOUTHEAST OHIO
EARLY TUESDAY MORNING. THIS FRONT WILL BRING ANOTHER ROUND OF STRONG
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS...WHICH WILL SPREAD EAST THROUGH AT LEAST
TUESDAY AFTERNOON. ADDITIONAL ROUNDS OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ARE
EXPECTED INTO WEDNESDAY. THE WEAKENING COLD FRONT MAY FINALLY BE
NUDGED EAST WEDNESDAY NIGHT. THIS WILL USHER IN SOMEWHAT DRIER AND
COOLER AIR...ALTHOUGH...ROUNDS OF SHOWERS WILL CONTINUE TO BE POSSIBLE
FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE WEEK. THESE WILL BE TIED TO DIURNAL
HEATING... AND WEAK UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCES PASSING ON THURSDAY AND
AGAIN ON SATURDAY.
