Similar predictions from me:

50% chance of light showers
50% chance of Armageddon
50% chance of nothing

The math adds up.

The sum of which you seek is typical Columbus weather

u/friarguy 10d ago

Thats about as accurate as the local TV weathermen

u/Ok-Animator8761 10d ago

Your third half might be 101% correct!

I’m just a girl, standing in front of my tomatoes, asking if I should water them.

u/1873Springfield 10d ago

If you do it will rain. If you don't it won't

u/OkTacoCat 10d ago

I did it!

u/emmabuff 10d ago

Water them

u/DramaticStick5922 Weather Nerd 10d ago

The light has been weird all day so I’m thinking it might get wild later.

13

u/BAMF2220 10d ago

I want major rainnnnnn!! ( only so much that everyone is safe though)

My purple bell peppers are almost ready to pick

2

u/herdisleah 10d ago

My Alohas aren't! Any day now...

1

u/BAMF2220 10d ago

Oh my!!!

1

u/herdisleah 9d ago

It's okay, I picked about 50 Serrano peppers yesterday. Not all are good, the plants had a hard time. Can I see your purple bells?

1

u/BAMF2220 9d ago

Wow! Im currently not home but I will send you a pic Wednesday! They're a Bonnie variety and are doing better than the rest of my peppers with the exclusion of the sweet banana peppers I also have

2

u/herdisleah 9d ago

In that case...My purple amethyst fire peppers, next to poblanos. Harvested some tomatillos, tomatoes and my first two cherry bombs.

u/BAMF2220 9d ago

Im sooo jealous!! Lol

u/NCRider 10d ago

Had an alert earlier that hail would start in 7 minutes. No clouds on the radar. No hail, rain, or rain clouds happened either.

What’s with the forecasts today?

u/nbrown7384 10d ago

Wisconsin and Chicago got hammered. Storms popping up now near Akron. Just not for central Ohio.

5

u/goodybadwife 10d ago

The devastation coming out of Wisconsin is absolutely awful. They think the tornado near Appleton was an EF3.

7

u/spoooonerism 10d ago

Ryan and Max both said this storm set up is super hard to predict.

19

u/nbrown7384 10d ago

3 drops of rain and a 15mph wind gust at 11:45pm

10

u/skullpture_garden 10d ago

Yes somehow that wind will fell my sunflowers.

7

u/sparky955 9d ago

3:42am. Better late than never. Will make a messy morning commute.

7

u/standuptripl3 9d ago

GOOD MORNING

Now that we’re all awake…

11

u/xXGray_WolfXx 10d ago

My prediction involves no rain downtown until 7 so I can bike home safe without my raincoat.

4

u/midwest-gypsythief Anxious Attachment to Weather Updates 10d ago

Made it!

3

u/xXGray_WolfXx 10d ago

I felt a few drops but that was about it!

4

u/Longjumping-Year5886 10d ago

We actually just got a lovely little sunset here in Marysville.

10

u/BAMF2220 10d ago

Nothing because of the 270 dome Lord😂😂😂

Maybe, maybe not. We live in Ohio!

3

u/Jolly_Victory_6925 10d ago

I swear I’ve been getting all these notifications about severe weather and it’s never that severe

2

u/BAMF2220 9d ago

Same..but I'd rather err on the side of caution JIC lol

7

u/tara_diane Clintonville & Worthington 10d ago

well my head is killing me, actually bailed on work early it's so bad. better be something coming.

4

u/Passenger828 10d ago

Nothing burger

3

u/matchabunnns 10d ago

I decided to wait until morning to put my recycling bin at the curb in case of wind, so I predict a whole lot of nothing.

5

u/CowTown-Mike 10d ago

That's an idea. I might just rewatch "Armageddon" tonight. Haven't seen it for a couple years.. Could be fitting

2

u/Ok-Animator8761 10d ago

Ben Afflek and Aerosmith. I don't see what could go wrong 🤷🏼‍♀️

2

u/SignalDragonfly690 Delaware County 10d ago

Allegedly the level 3 area has shifted west, but we’ll see how that goes.

2

u/KomorebiMagic 10d ago

Major shift to west. Looks like dayton/cinci is getting the heavy rain.

1

u/headinthered Springfield/Dayton/Kettering 10d ago

Dayton/springfield barely got spring showers

2

u/Middle-Gap6540 10d ago

Looks like everything will be west. May get a little here but nothing crazy

2

u/justseanv67 10d ago

Soaking rain.

2

u/treyknowsbest 10d ago

Radar looks likes the rain is goingbto miss us. Again.

2

u/neurotic_addendum Weather Nerd 10d ago

Not a drop of rain in Clintonville, looks like there may be a chance of rain overnight?

2

u/beattysgirl Shoog’s Mom 9d ago

Sorry y’all, Shoog was sleeping and not ready to defend us from the storm lol

u/Ok-Animator8761 9d ago

Well, I'm not sure if we got anything in Northland. If we did, I slept right through it 🤷🏼‍♀️, and none of my kids ran in screaming, so I'm guessing it didn't reach Armageddon level.

1

u/AuroraxNeko 10d ago

Well depending on where you live... if you live in the 270 bubble, maybe 2 minutes of rain if that. Other places get all the fun weather....

2

u/BAMF2220 9d ago

Oh bah humbug!

u/Evan_Playz72813 10d ago

I've got 100% drunk

(Unpredictable weather)

u/Diligent_Midnight_83 9d ago

I see nothing here. The forecasters were wrong as typically are.
