Episode narrativeepisode_narrativeAlthough no damaging winds or large hail occurred on this Friday afternoon, a small, very localized cluster of thunderstorms brought heavy rainfall and flooding to a small portion of Greeley County. A gauge report from the public 5 miles northwest of Wolbach indicated 3.30 inches of rain between 1 PM and 230 PM CDT, with most of this falling in one hour. As a result, rapid runoff resulted in the brief flooding of the west branch of Spring Creek in this area. However, the highly localized nature of rainfall prevented notable downstream flooding into the community of Wolbach. This small cluster of storms rapidly started to weaken and dissipate after 230 PM CDT, and ended up being the only strong convection anywhere within the 24-county area during the daylight hours. ||The development of this storm cluster was focused on the sunnier and rapidly destabilizing side of a differential heating boundary in the area, in the presence of a weak mid-level shortwave centered across the region. As storms first developed in southeast Greeley County, surface-based CAPE values were on the order of 2000-3000 J/kg, with precipitable water around 1.5 inches.
Event narrativeevent_narrativeStorm total rainfall over a 90 minute period was 3.30 inches. The heavy rainfall resulted in Spring Creek flooding.
