SPC Severe Thunderstorm Watch 655
WW 655 SEVERE TSTM IN OH 050635Z - 051200Z

URGENT - IMMEDIATE BROADCAST REQUESTED
Severe Thunderstorm Watch Number 655
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
235 AM EDT Sat Sep 5 2026

The NWS Storm Prediction Center has issued a

* Severe Thunderstorm Watch for portions of 
  Northeast Indiana
  Northwest into North-Central Ohio

* Effective this Saturday morning from 235 AM until 800 AM EDT.

* Primary threats include...
  Scattered damaging wind gusts to 70 mph possible
  Scattered large hail events to 1.5 inches in diameter possible

SUMMARY...Strong to severe thunderstorms are expected tonight from
northeast Indiana into northwest/north-central Ohio. A few instances
of large hail are possible, but the primary severe risk is expected
to be damaging wind gusts.

The severe thunderstorm watch area is approximately along and 40
statute miles north and south of a line from 45 miles west northwest
of Fort Wayne IN to 65 miles east southeast of Findlay OH. For a
complete depiction of the watch see the associated watch outline
update (WOUS64 KWNS WOU5).

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

REMEMBER...A Severe Thunderstorm Watch means conditions are
favorable for severe thunderstorms in and close to the watch area.
Persons in these areas should be on the lookout for threatening
weather conditions and listen for later statements and possible
warnings. Severe thunderstorms can and occasionally do produce
tornadoes.

&&

AVIATION...A few severe thunderstorms with hail surface and aloft to
1.5 inches. Extreme turbulence and surface wind gusts to 60 knots. A
few cumulonimbi with maximum tops to 500. Mean storm motion vector
30030.

SPC Sep 5, 2026 Day 4-8 Severe Weather Outlook
Day 4-8 Outlook

Day 4-8 Convective Outlook  
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0244 AM CDT Sat Sep 05 2026

Valid 081200Z - 131200Z

...DISCUSSION...
...Days 4-6/Tue-Thu -- Central Plains to Great Lakes/Ohio Valley and
Mid-Atlantic...

An upper shortwave trough will shift east across the Upper
Midwest/Great Lakes and northeast through Thursday. An associated
surface low will mainly remain over Canada, but a trailing cold
front will sweep across parts of the central Plains and Upper
Midwest on Tuesday, before continuing south and east into Kansas and
across the Great Lakes on Wednesday. By Thursday, the boundary is
expected to continue south and east across the Ohio Valley and
Mid-Atlantic. Stronger large-scale ascent will likely remain focused
near and north of the international border. Furthermore, the
corridor of deeper boundary layer moisture may be somewhat limited,
especially Tuesday into Wednesday, due to a prior cold frontal
passage and surface high pressure over the Midwest. Nevertheless,
enhanced deep-layer flow, and corridors of at least modest
instability along the cold front could support some severe risk.
However, confidence in 15 percent or greater coverage is low at this
time frame. 

...Days 7-8/Fri-Sat -- Northern/Central Plains to Upper Midwest...

At the end of the period, another upper shortwave trough may dig
southeast from the Pacific Northwest and into the Plains. Another,
perhaps stronger, cold front could sweep across the Plains and the
Mid/Upper MS Valley. Depending on moisture return in the wake of the
earlier cold frontal passage, some severe risk could develop during
the weekend. Furthermore, large spread exists among various guidance
regarding the evolution of the this upper trough, resulting in
uncertainty in greater corridors of severe potential.

Moderate magnitude 4.6 earthquake 77 km southeast of Gorontalo, Indonesia

Indonesia's Meteorology, Climatology, and Geophysical Agency reported a magnitude 4.6 quake in Indonesia near Gorontalo, Kota Gorontalo, just 7 minutes ago. The earthquake struck in the early afternoon on Saturday, September 5th, 2026, at 2:34 pm local time, at an intermediate depth of 103. km. The exact magnitude, epicenter, and depth of the quake might be revised within the next few hours or minutes as seismologists review the data and refine their calculations, or as other agencies issue their reports.
Our monitoring service identified a second report from RaspberryShake's citizen-seismograph network, which also listed the quake at magnitude 4.6.
Weak shaking might have been felt in Gorontalo (pop. 198,500), located 77 km from the epicenter.
Other towns or cities near the epicenter where the quake might have been felt as very weak shaking include Luwuk (pop. 47,800), located 104 km from the epicenter.
VolcanoDiscovery will automatically update the magnitude and depth if these change and follow up if other significant news about the quake becomes available. If you’re in the area, please send us your experience through our reporting mechanism, either online or via our mobile app. This will help us provide more first-hand updates to anyone around the globe who wants to know more about this quake.

Day 3 Convective Outlook  
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0137 AM CDT Sat Sep 05 2026

Valid 071200Z - 081200Z

...THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PARTS OF
THE NORTHERN AND CENTRAL PLAINS INTO WESTERN MINNESOTA...

...SUMMARY...
Strong to severe thunderstorms are possible across portions of the
northern and central Plains into Minnesota on Monday.

...Nebraska into the Dakotas and Minnesota...

An upper shortwave trough will eject east/northeast from the
Intermountain West to the northern Plains on Monday. Strong
mid/upper southwesterly flow will overspread the region ahead of the
trough. At the surface, a low over eastern MT will develop northeast
into the Canadian Prairies, and a trailing cold front will push east
across portions of NE/SD/ND. A moist airmass will be in place ahead
of the front, promoting areas of moderate instability. Vertically
veering wind profiles, and strengthening midlevel southwesterly
flow, will generate effective shear magnitudes greater than 35 kt,
supporting organized thunderstorms. While cooling aloft will result
in modestly steep lapse rates, warmer temperatures may linger around
850 mb, leading to capping concerns. Nevertheless, even elevated
storms will pose a risk for hail, and depending on storm mode,
strong wind gusts.
