Atmospheric conditions exist today across portions of Eastern OH,
the WV Panhandle, and Western PA for the potential formation of
weak circulations within shallow showers/thunderstorms that may
allow for funnel clouds to form. Remember, funnel clouds will
appear smooth and exhibit counter-clockwise rotation while
harmless low hanging clouds, known as SCUD, will appear ragged and
not exhibit rotation.

In rare occasions, these funnel clouds may briefly touch down.
Stay alert and be prepared to move to a safe shelter if you
observe a funnel cloud approaching the ground. Report funnel
clouds and/or possible tornado touchdowns to local law enforcement
and the National Weather Service.
