Episode narrativeepisode_narrativeStrong thunderstorms produced very heavy rain that caused local flooding. The storms were organized into a mesoscale convective system (MCS) that tracked slowly southeast across southwest Indiana. The storms were fueled by a southwest wind flow of very warm and humid air that averaged around 20 knots a few thousand feet above ground level. Precipitable water values near 2.3 inches supported torrential rainfall rates. The complex of storms formed along a warm front that extended from southern Missouri across southern Illinois.
Event narrativeevent_narrativeThe automated observing system at the Evansville airport measured 1.96 inches of rain in an hour.
