Sunday morning, the National Weather Service issued a flood statement saying the flood warning continues for the Ohio River at Cincinnati until further notice. The Ohio River has reached moderate flooding levels for the first time since 2021, according to the National Water Prediction Service.
Transportation officials are urging motorists to check travel conditions before they hit the road and to never drive through flooded roadways.
Here's a list of weather-related road closures in Greater Cincinnati:
Riddles Run Road (KY 2852) between Beaver Road (KY 338) and Hathaway Road (KY 536) in Boone County.
Pond Creek Road (KY 1936) at the corner Visalia Road in Campbell County.
River Road (KY 445) between Delta Ave. and Mary Ingles Highway (KY 6635) in Campbell County.
Oneonta Road (KY 1566) near Truesdell Road in Campbell County.
Mary Ingles Highway (KY 6335) between River Road (KY 445) and Tower Hill Road due to a mudslide in Campbell County.
Locust Pike (KY 1930) near Locust Pike Park in Kenton County.
Decoursey Pike (KY 177) near Washboard Road in Kenton County.
River Road (KY 8) between Amsterdam Road (KY 371) and the 1.20 mile point due to a mudslide in Kenton County.
Fowler Creek Road (KY 1486) between Senour Road (KY 2047) and Sycamore Creek Drive in Kenton County.
Rich Road (KY 14) between Hempfling Road and Cruise Creek Road in Kenton County.
All lanes are closed on the ramp from Interstate 275 East to U.S. Route 52 East at Kellogg Avenue due to flooding in Hamilton County.

NOAA debuts artificial intelligence models for hurricane season

The Brief The National Weather Service is rehiring more than 100 employees after mass layoffs. This will be the first hurricane season NOAA uses AI models in forecasts. Experts say the technology could reduce forecasting errors—but humans still lead the effort. TAMPA, Fla. - The National Weather Service is testing artificial intelligence for the first time this hurricane season. What we know NOAA officials say AI models will now join the suite of tools meteorologists use to track storm development and intensity. Follow FOX 13 on YouTube What they're saying Wallace Hogsett, a science and operations officer for NOAA, told FOX 13 this marks a pivotal year: "We were looking at [AI models] a little last year, but this is the first year they will be a part of the suite of models that we're looking at." He explained that traditional models involve solving complicated equations, and take a lot of computing power, so AI can help speed it up, and decrease errors. READ: Hillsborough County seeks feedback to decide how to spend $700 million in hurricane recovery funds "AI models, on the other hand, are looking at 30, 40, 50 years of four-dimensional data and processing all of that information very quickly, recognizing patterns and producing a forecast," said Hogsett. "We're hoping that these models will help continue the trend of lower errors in both track and intensity forecasts, which will allow people to have a clearer picture of the risk that they and their families will be under." FOX 13 Chief Meteorologist Paul Dellegatto agrees AI is promising — but not a replacement: "We look at this model, we look at that model, and now we look at AI models… it's simply another tool we use to forecast … I think AI is probably the future, but we're not there yet." What's next If forecasters find AI models reliable this season, NOAA says the tech could be permanently integrated into future forecasting operations.

National Weather Service confirms 7 tornadoes touched down in River Valley on June 6

WATCH ABOVE: Drone footage of the damage in Van Buren. (COURTESY: Charles Peek and the Weather Channel) TULSA, Okla. (KNWA/KFTA) — The National Weather Service confirmed June 10 that seven tornadoes touched down in Sequoyah County and Van Buren on June 6. The NWS says a line of severe thunderstorms moved across Sequoyah County and into west-central Arkansas. Damaging winds occurred along virtually the length of Sequoyah County. According to the NWS, an EF1 tornado formed near Mc Key in Sequoyah County and moved southeast before turning to the northeast and dissipating northwest of Sallisaw. Wind speeds hit 95 mph. The NWS says damage appeared to be confined to trees. An EF1 tornado hit Sallisaw with wind speeds up to 95 mph. It formed between North Wheeler Avenue and South Road 4640, north of East Road 1060. It headed east-southeast, crossing East Road 1060 near South Road 4650. The tornado traveled to South Road 4670 where it dissipated. Damage was primarily done to trees. An EF1 tornado with wind speeds of up to 90 mph formed near Liberty in Sequoyah County. It formed in the western sections of the community. The tornado traveled near and just south of East Road 1060. Minor damage was done to the roof of the community's school, and a power pole was damaged. Many trees were damaged. Some trees were uprooted. Van Buren tornado from June 6 rated EF-1, 2 other brief tornadoes reported Van Buren was hit by three tornadoes. An EF0 tornado hit the city with wind speeds of 85 mph. The tornado developed just west of the Arkansas River south of Interstate 540 in an open area and traveled across the Arkansas River to the Port of Van Buren. The tornado damaged a fabric and metal storage shelter and the roof of a nearby building. It dissipated as it left the port area. An EF1 tornado with wind speeds between 95 mph and 105 mph touched down in southeast Van Buren near South 4th Street and Wood Street. The tornado moved rapidly northeast into the area just south of the Baptist Health-Van Buren complex. A commercial building was damaged, along with multiple homes on Ozier Street, Mulberry Street and South 19th Street. Winds blew in the walls that contained windows of two homes. One home lost its entire roof and the other lost a large portion of its roof. The tornado quickly dissipated, lasting a little more than one minute. Another EF0 tornado hit Van Buren with 85 mph wind speeds. It traveled near the Union Pacific Railroad line north of Kibler Road and west of Shibley Road. The tornado damaged trees and passed over homes. The NWS says damage to structures appeared to be limited. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.

Tornado count creeps higher, record already set

The spring severe weather season spilled into the month of June in Missouri and Arkansas, with more tornadoes added to this year's tornado count. The preliminary number in Missouri stands at 115. This is second in the nation! And this is a new yearly record for Missouri, topping 106 tornadoes in 2006. In Arkansas, the count stands at 54. The record year was 1999 with 107 tornadoes. Texas leads the nation at 136, but this shouldn't be a surprise given its size relative to other states. Tornado concentrations this year have been outside of the more traditional tornado hotspots like Tornado Alley, which runs from the Dakotas south to Texas, and Dixie Alley, which runs from Louisiana to Georgia north into Kentucky. This year's tornadoes have focused from Southeast Missouri and Northeast Arkansas east into Southern Illinois and Western Kentucky. Why? Well, this year, the timing and intensity of storm systems early in the season led to big outbreaks in the same spots. Remember the windstorms back in March. The wind was driven by deep areas of low pressure that moved through the region. That wind energy helps drive severe weather as well if there's enough instability and thunderstorms develop. The pattern remained consistently active through April and the middle of May. This also contributed to big rain totals across the region, with nearly two feet of rainfall falling in Springfield from April through May. Looking ahead, it appears we're transitioning to more of a summer pattern as the jet stream, or storm-organizing winds, shift further north. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.
