Lorain County and much of north central Ohio is under a flood watch through tomorrow morning.

According to the National Weather Service, showers will increase in coverage and intensity this afternoon and evening. Thunderstorms are possible near Lake Erie.

Rainfall totals will range from one to three inches, but the ground is already saturated, so flood-prone areas and poor drainage areas will be at risk for flooding.

The National Weather Service recommends monitoring the forecast. Those who live in flood-prone areas should be ready to take action in case flooding develops.
