Strong 0-1 km SRH resides mainly north of the boundaries, but stronger pockets develop over western Kentucky during early afternoon, and 100+ m2\/s2 over southeastern Ohio toward 00Z. Convection is forecast to be ongoing and messy throughout the day, so it&#8217;s difficult to for me to anticipate how that plays out in this area. My target is in southeast Ohio where 0-1km EHI rises over 1.5 by 00Z and the lid strength index points to wide openings for surface based storms in the area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Results<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Nearest Tornado Report: 94 Miles West-southwest<br>Nearest Severe Report: 3 Miles Southeast [Hail: 1.5 inch]<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/perezmedia.net\/ceruleanarc\/?attachment_id=901\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"582\" height=\"408\" src=\"https:\/\/perezmedia.net\/ceruleanarc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/ChaseGameResults_20140514-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-901\" srcset=\"https:\/\/perezmedia.net\/ceruleanarc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/ChaseGameResults_20140514-1.jpg 582w, https:\/\/perezmedia.net\/ceruleanarc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/ChaseGameResults_20140514-1-300x210.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 582px) 100vw, 582px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Chase Target:&nbsp;Zanesville, Ohio I&#8217;m relying on guidance from NAM for this forecast and have run out of time to compare with GFS.
