Here's what the National Weather Service website says about the weekend in Ada:
Showers and thunderstorms, mainly before midnight, then showers and possibly a thunderstorm after midnight. Some of the storms could produce heavy rainfall. Low around 62. East wind 13 to 18 mph. Chance of precipitation is 100%. New rainfall amounts between 1 and 2 inches possible.
You already know this - but here's what it looks like very high above Ada. Get your umbrella ready and your sump pump tuned up. It will be a rainly weekend.
Bluffton's fireworks scheduled for Saturday, June 27, are postponed due to the anticipated rain on Saturday, according to the Bluffton Area Chamber of Commerce.
In addition, Mennonite Memorial Home's Concert on the Lawn, planned June 27, is postponed.
Ohio Northern University is currently hosting its 11th Summer Academic and Honors Institute for gifted high school students who will be freshmen, sophomores, juniors or seniors in 2015-16.
This year’s institute includes 14 challenging courses scheduled over the month of June.
Each weeklong course provides a great way to investigate potential career choices or college majors. Students completing a course can also earn college credit.
There’s a story behind every car and this Ada vehicle has lots of stories to tell. It’s Bob Simmons 1966 Mustang GT.
For starters, this car has been in the same family for over 48 years.
The Icon found it on display earlier this month at the Bluffton Lions Club Festival of Wheels.
This Mustang has a two-generation family ownership. It was originally purchased new in 1966 in Upper Sandusky by Bob’s father-in-law, Loren Schoenberger, now 94.
Bob says the car was driven by his mother-in-law from 1966-1995. It was also driven by the Schoenberger’s daughters, Jill and Jan, during their high school years.
