 .DISCUSSION...
 Areas of fog can be expected early this morning, with much of the 
 remainder of today looking to be dry and pleasant. However, another 
 storm system will bring showers and thunderstorms tonight into 
 Thursday. Flash flooding will still be a concern with this next 
 system, given the very saturated ground and high water levels on 
 many rivers, creeks, and streams, however, it should be more 
 isolated in nature than in recent days.
 
 A disturbance could provide additional showers and thunderstorms on 
 Friday for some areas, although southeast Ohio should remain dry. 
 
 A cold front will then move through on Saturday, with additional 
 precipitation possible.
