QUOTES:

"Thunderstorms packing wind up to 65 mph barreled through Ohio on
Wednesday, part of a storm system that battered sections of the Midwest and
Mid-Atlantic for a second day.

Heavy showers and high wind also caused flooding and damaged trees and
power lines across Illinois, Indiana, West Virginia and Pennsylvania.

About 5 inches of rain drenched eastern Ohio's Coshocton County, where
rescuers plucked children from two school buses stuck on flooded roads
Wednesday, said Toby Collins of the county's emergency management office.

In West Virginia's Northern Panhandle, lightning set a home on fire in
Moundsville, trapping four people before firefighters got them out, said
Tom Hart, Marshall County director of emergency services.

In neighboring Monongalia County, six accidents were reported along
Interstates 68 and 79 within five minutes, a county emergency operator
said. No major injuries were reported.

The area around Dayton, Ohio, got 1.4 inches of rain in a 40-minute period
Wednesday.

Tens of thousands of people across the storm zone lost power for a time or
were still waiting to get it back.

Tuesday night, a tornado touched down briefly in northwest Ohio, leveling a
barn in Allen County. Kevin Baumgart said he saw the twister come over his
neighbor's house."
