A very strong area of deepening low pressure moved east across northern Ohio during the evening hours of May 7th.  By midday on the 8th, the low had reached northern New York state.  Showers and thunderstorms associated with the low moved across northern Ohio during the evening hours of the 7th.  Several of the thunderstorms became severe and at least one tornado was reported.  An EF1 tornado moved across portions of eastern Wood County damaging a few homes and buildings.  A downburst caused considerable damage in Erie County.  There were dozens of reports of large hail and damaging winds elsewhere across northern Ohio.  Estimates have indicated that as many as 5,000 homes and businesses in northern Ohio may have sustained damage during this event.  At the peak of the storm more than 300,000 residents were without power in Northeast Ohio alone.  A strong cold front trailing the low exited Ohio to the east early on May 8th.  Gusty southwest to west winds occurred behind this front.  Some wind damage was reported in a few northern Ohio counties during the early afternoon hours of the 8th.
