Storm damage including downed tree limbs and power outages is being reported in the wake of a quick moving line of storms this evening.

Non-emergency police and fire phone lines in Englewood, which were temporarily down, have been patched and are working again as of 10:30 p.m.

All National Weather Service severe thunderstorm warnings are now canceled, as well as a flood advisory that was briefly issued for several counties where 1 to 2 inches of rain fell during passing thunderstorms.

Dayton Power & Light is reporting several hundred remaining outages at 10:50 p.m. 481 customers in Miami County are without power along with 190 in Montgomery County, 66 in Darke, 17 in Greene, 2 in Champaign, and 1 each in Preble and Shelby counties. Ohio Edison is reporting 55 outages in Clark County.

Those DP&L numbers are down from a total of 3,800 customers affected by outages this evening, spokesman Kevin Hall said.

Storm Center 7 has received several reports of lightning damage including a tree struck in Piqua, and scattered damage in the village of Bradford in Miami County. A large tree fell on a house there in the 200 block of East Oakwood Street. The 88-year-old woman who lives in the house was not injured.

Nearby on Liberty Street, a large limb fell on two vehicles and damaged them. The owner of those vehicles, Kelsey Grilliot, said the storm came through quickly and she had no time to move her cars.

The threat for severe weather the rest of the night is low, but Storm Center 7 Chief Meteorologist Jamie Simpson said a few downpours will occur and a chance of brief gusty winds and small hail exists.

Excessive heat will stick around and will likely prompt severe storms Thursday.

Simpson said not only are storms definite, but severe storms are likely from mid-afternoon through mid-evening.

“The Storm Prediction Center has upgraded us to a moderate risk which means they expect more reports of damage than they would in a slight risk,” Simpson said.

He said widespread damage is a good possibility and a line of damaging winds with gusts to 80 mph is very possible. “It could end up being a setup similar to the one we had the day of Tattoo,” he said.

Ohio Edison parent company First Energy Corp. announced Wednesday that it is mobilizing crews in case the storms impact electric service.

“All FirstEnergy utilities are on high alert and continue preparations to mobilize employees and resources, as needed, from throughout FirstEnergy’s 10 utilities to assist in storm restoration activities in the hardest-hit areas,” the company said.

Ohio Edison outage information will be available at www.firstenergycorp.com and on the company’s Twitter accounts in the event of a major service interruption.

The heat advisory issued Wednesday for Butler, Clinton, Darke, Montgomery, Preble, Randolph, Union, Warren and Wayne counties expired at 8 p.m. Much of the Miami Valley will be under another heat advisory from noon to 8 p.m. Thursday.

The weather service has issued an excessive heat warning for Montgomery County from 8 Wednesday night until 8 Thursday night because overnight temperatures will not drop as much in the city.

“We will not cool down much overnight, and temperatures in the city of Dayton may not drop much below the upper 70s,” Simpson said. He said Thursday will be a touch hotter but much more humid than Wednesday. The heat index is expected to surpass 105 degrees Thursday.

The weekend is expected to be dry with lower humidity and seasonable temperatures.
