Severe Thunderstorm Warning Issued for Jason Aldean Concert at Blossom Music Center
Fans attending the Jason Aldean show at Blossom Music Center in northeast Ohio are being asked to seek shelter as the National Weather Service issued a severe thunderstorm warning. The warning is in effect until 8:15 p.m.
The concert venue took to Facebook to inform fans about the weather situation. “Attention Jason Aldean fans! We are currently monitoring weather and holding doors,” the venue said. “We ask that fans safely seek shelter at this time. If you are in the venue, please seek shelter in the nearest structure or building. If you have not entered, please proceed back to your car.”
The start time of the show is currently unclear. The venue stated that they are actively monitoring the incoming weather and will provide updates when it is safe to begin entry to Blossom Music Center.
Forecasters have predicted storms due to a strong cold front moving southeast across the region later in the evening and tonight. The storms could bring risks such as large hail, as big as a golf ball, and torrential rainfall.
As of 3:30 p.m., the front was approaching Detroit and is expected to reach the I-77 corridor between 5 and 6 p.m. It is projected to reach the Pennsylvania border by midnight. The storms are expected to move at speeds between 35-40 mph or more when they reach Ohio, with wind gusts of up to 70 mph possible. There is also a chance of isolated tornadoes.
The high temperatures on Thursday, in the mid 80s, are contributing to the potential for severe weather. However, once the cold front passes through, temperatures are expected to drop, with highs in the 70s on Friday.
Fortunately, a dry weekend is expected with highs in the lower 80s.
