Report that Upper Grave Creek is out of its banks and entering a home along Green Valley Road.

The wider storm

Overnight sub-severe convection and remnant boundaries from said convection acted as initiating mechanisms for development later in the morning and afternoon hours. A moist and unstable environment with up to 2500 J/kg MLCAPE and 30 knots of effective shear supported storm organization and maintenance. Favorable DCAPE between 800-1000 J/kg resulted in some instances of damaging wind. In addition, slow cloud bearing layer wind and PWAT values up to 2.0 was sufficient for instances of flash flooding.

Began near Cameron (39.8281, -80.5403).
