Meteorologist cites milder winter endangering Ohio floods
AP noted private meteorologist Gordon Barnes warns that a milder winter with heavier precipitation could trigger major flooding in the Ohio River Valley. He projects a winter about 15 percent colder than normal overall, with Ohio seeing 25 percent above normal precipitation especially in the southern half, and four late March or early April storms could boost rapid melting and ice breakup. Barnes says the risk remains despite confidence in calculations.
