Daily Record publishes Holmes County weather briefing for Feb. 19, 2026

The Daily Record (Wooster) published what it described as "a routine but locally useful post for residents, schools, emergency services and businesses that depend on near-term weather," but the copy of the Feb. 19 briefing provided to this newsroom is truncated at "The Feb. 19 weath" and the full local text is not present. The briefing references a weather product that, in available records, carries a Feb. 13 timestamp and detailed numeric arrays that climatologically affect Barker Store, Leonia, New Hope, Bonifay, Holmes County Airport, and Cobb Crossroads.

The forecast product header in the material reads verbatim: "FLZ009-132100- Holmes- Including the cities of Barker Store, Leonia, New Hope, Bonifay, Holmes County Airport, and Cobb Crossroads 526 AM CST Fri Feb 13 2026." That file contains three alternate forecast blocks with differing Max/Min temperature lines - one block lists Max/Min 74 45 76 57 72, another 73 40 75 55 76, and a third 75 46 76 56 72 - showing real divergence in model outputs that local decision makers would need to track.

Precipitation forecasts across the Feb. 13 runs diverge sharply. One block shows PoP 12hr as "0 0 0 20 90" with QPF 12hr "0 0 0 0 0.59-0.70." Alternate blocks show PoP 12hr "0 0 0 40 100" with QPF 12hr "0 0 0 0.07-0.18 1.24-1.45." Those ranges imply a wholesale difference in expected rainfall totals on the later valid periods - from a few tenths of an inch to more than an inch in the highest QPF run - a material gap for road crews, event planners and farms around Bonifay and New Hope.

Wind, humidity and timing arrays in the Feb. 13 product add operational detail but also parsing challenges. Wind spd sequences include values up to 18 mph in Blocks B and C and gust entries are truncated in places - one block lists "Wind gust 24 29 21" while another contains an incomplete "Wind gust [...] 2026" token. Relative humidity arrays contain run-together numeric strings exactly as supplied - examples include "93100100", "96100" and "90100" - which should be clarified before converting into usable charts for emergency managers at Holmes County Airport.

Cloud and convective codes appear throughout the product but are not defined in the provided text. Clouds lines include sequences such as "CL CL CL CL CL CL FW SC SC B1 B1 B1 B2 B2 B2 OV OV OV OV OV" and rain-shower codes range across "S S C C D D D" and "C C D D D D L" with thunderstorm codes "Tstms C C" and "Tstms S C C C." Those coded slots indicate a shift from mostly clear hours to overcast and convective periods on later model runs, but the file does not translate codes into plain-language timing for schools or emergency services.

Because the Daily Record’s Feb. 19 text is truncated and the available forecast files are timestamped "526 AM CST Fri Feb 13 2026" and explicitly cover Fri 02/13/26 through Tue 02/17/26 with "Wed [...]" truncated, it is not possible from the supplied material to assert specific Feb. 19 conditions. Local officials in Bonifay, Cobb Crossroads and surrounding townships would be served by confirmation from the forecast originator to resolve the PoP and QPF spread and to obtain a finalized Feb. 19 briefing before making closure or service decisions.
