A storm that hit Swanton just after 7 p.m. forced the Swanton Public Library's Concert on the Lawn indoors and dropped pea-sized hail on the village.
A flash flood warning was also issued for western Lucas County on Thursday evening.
In Wauseon, a downburst caused damage at Biddle Park. A backstop was uprooted and sheared off a speed limit sign and a trash receptacle was thrown airborne 125 yards.
