Looks like things are better for Gary.  From the WBNS website:

On Friday morning, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers projected that
Delaware Lake will crest 1.5 feet below the maximum level. No
flooding is anticipated along the Olentangy River, either. 

People living downstream had been preparing for the worst, in case
water levels at the dam reach a critical point. But with no more
rain expected, those who were voluntarily evacuated were told they
could return home.

"Forty hours ago, it appeared that we might face the worst flooding
that the Olentangy Valley has seen in decades. We are very happy
that the waters are subsiding, and we appreciate the cooperation
that citizens have displayed during this very serious situation,"
Larry Fisher, Delaware County Emergency Services Supervisor, said.
