Our road trip today takes us from the Appalachians to the Midwest. It's a 373 mile drive that will take a little over 6 hours. That comes down to an average speed of 61mph, which is fairly slow, considering much of the day will be spent on the interstate. It promises to be a stormy drive, which will be great, rolling through the mountains.



Overnight, the thunderstorms across the east will taper off, but a weak boundary developing in western Ohio will generate the occasional thunderstorms similar to what is being seen today across the area. We should be able to make it all the way through West Virginia without seeing any wet weather, but the same can't be said for Ohio. The thunderstorms will begin popping up in Ohio in the early afternoon and will rush south to meet us near Marietta. These storms could be a bit stronger than anything being seen today, given more substantial forcing. The hit or miss thunderstorms will mostly be to the south of Canton when we arrive around 4 in the afternoon, but an umbrella is still encouraged.
