They're rare but the NWS is now calling what I thought we had a derecho.

But the official word is that the derecho did not make it to Ohio. I find that hard to believe.
The rain gauge read 1.52" at 7 am (08-12-26). That brings the month up to 6.71". Normal for August is 3.08".
Tuesday, 08-11-26: We traveled to Mason and I watched radar while we were there. There was no doubt something major was already in the Dayton area and moving south towards us. Later the radar app I use in my car was showing this:
08-11-26 2:52 pm
And here's what the view out the windshield looked like:
08-11-26 2:42 pm
08-11-26 2:42 pm
This looks like a shelf cloud to me and it's the leading edge of the cluster of storms which is mowing SE.
