The National Weather Service is monitoring a potential heavy rain event in West Virginia later this week, with a flood watch in place for several counties. Meteorologists are focused on the Mid-Ohio Valley region, where a frontal boundary system is expected to bring rain from the south. Some areas in Ohio and Kentucky could see up to six to seven inches of rain, while West Virginia counties under the watch may see up to three inches, potentially causing flooding in streams, creeks, and rivers. The weather system could shift southward, affecting additional counties in West Virginia. The state is expected to experience damp and stormy conditions for several days, with periods of showers and thunderstorms containing heavy downpours. The National Weather Service urges residents to stay alert and prepared for potential flooding as the situation develops.
