Severe Thunderstorm Watch issued for Ohio and Indiana

A Severe Thunderstorm Watch is in effect for several counties in Ohio, including Auglaize, Butler, and Montgomery. The watch will last until 1 a.m. tonight. Indiana's Wayne and Union counties are also included in this alert. A Wind Advisory has been issued for the same area. Strong gusts could reach up to 50 miles per hour. Meteorologists warn that storms are expected to hit tonight, bringing the possibility of damaging winds. According to weather experts, the storms will move quickly, meaning they won't stay in one place for long. It is important for residents to have ways to receive alerts while sleeping, in case severe weather approaches. While strong winds are the main concern, there is also a small chance of brief tornadoes. The risk is higher in areas west of Interstate 75. Authorities will continue to monitor the situation and provide updates as necessary.
