| Episode narrativeepisode_narrative | A front was stretched out east to west near the southern border of West Virginia. A strong mid level disturbance lifted northeast and enhanced the rain after 0100E on Monday the 4th before lifting out around noon. The axis of the heaviest rain fell from southern Wayne County on northeast, through western Kanawaha County, southern Roane County, southern Calhoun County, then through Gilmer, Lewis, and Harrison Counties. The rain totals in this maximum were mostly 2 to 2.9 inches in a 6 to 12 hour period.||Leading up to this episode, the ground was saturated from light but frequent rain. The spring foliage was just in its beginning stages, and not consuming a lot of soil moisture. As a result, the rain quickly became runoff.||Nuiisance flooding was common, with water ponding on roads in poor drainage areas. More serious stream flooding occurred along the West Fork of the Little Kanawha River in Calhoun County. Schools were canceled in a few counties. ||River flooding resulted along the Little Kanawha River downstream of Burnsville through Glenville to Grantsville. The West Fork River also flooded as it flowed north through Harrison County.||In June, some of these counties were added to FEMA disaster 1838. Around 3 dozen home owners applied for assistance. |
