Heavy rains Sunday night into Monday led to flooding in some parts of the Tri-State.

The Sebald Park Area of Elk Creek MetroPark in Madison Twp. was impassable as water and logs rose over or landed on the bridge.

Mill Creek at Evendale was under a flood warning Monday morning and the Great Miami and Little Miami River were expected to rise quickly, WCPO meteorologists reported.

Southwest Ohio will cool throughout the day with temperatures in the mid-40s by the evening drive. Rain will be more or less done at that point with cloudy sky.

The area will cool to 32 tonight under a mostly cloudy sky and clouds will likely hang around Tuesday with a cool high of 46 degrees.

Fans of warmer weather will like the outlook for Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. Temperatures will bounce back to the mid to upper 50s.

For Friday night into Saturday morning, a strong cold front will pass through the Ohio Valley, not only bringing rain overnight but also the chance for spotty snow showers lingering into Saturday’s forecast. Saturday will be much colder with highs in the mid 30s.
