Severe thunderstorm watch issued just south of Dayton.

So damn close. Ugh. I'm in far southern Montgomery county so it's not like there'll be a huge difference in that distance but it sucks being officially excluded by that small of a distance.

The OV really stole the day especially considering there was a 10% hatched tornado to start the day for Minnesota. Lots of supercells here.

Definitely some rotation in the supercell north of Hamilton. I grew up and lived in West Chester for most of my life. Also home to a couple current NFL players I went to high school with, just saying

I haven’t been on in probably a couple months had to for this. Probably one of the more intense storms that I’ve ever driven through. It hit right as I was getting off work. Didn’t even know anything was coming. I walked out into the lobby and saw the windows shaking and saw the blinding sideways rain and I waited about 5 minutes before going out. But once I got out there it was just the tail end of the worse part. But I’ve never seen so many ctg lightning strikes from one storm before. It was like every other strike was. And the rain and ponding I’ve driven through on the way to my parents house is crazy from one storm. 
I’ve seen about 3 fires trucks racing around so I’m wondering if a few of those strikes have started fires in places. 
Really good surprise storm.

Classic.. also I like how it seemed to push/squash the cell ahead of it before congealing.

It's a no brainer to say that's the most well-defined bow echo we've seen this year in our area... but it's certainly gonna be a contender for the year from here on out. Stunning.

That’s beautiful. Text book look. We had it good but looking at what it looks like now I wish it was hitting now. 
You know it’s a good one when the warnings are out 40 miles ahead of the storm.

I'm assuming the MCV today is leftovers from yesterday? I just woke up but I grabbed some good shots of the one that moved through here while I was at work yesterday. Straight up took on some tropical cyclone characteristics lol.

Indeed. As you'd expect, near-term models completely botched its behavior.

Round 3 of severe weather coming for NKY

Still have 3 supercells ongoing in the Cincinnati area. That doesn't include the sub-severe classic bow echo/bookend vortex in KY/IN/OH tri-state area and the MCV in SW IN/SE IL
