Episode narrativeepisode_narrativeA surge of tropical moisture in advance of a slow moving but strong upper level trough tracking east from Texas produced copius amounts of heavy showers and a few thunderstorms over an 18-24 hour period. Rainfall amounts of 2 to 4 inches were observed at most locations, with some seeing 5 to just over 7 inches. The heaviest amounts were atop the Cumberland Plateau, possibly enhanced by this elevation change. Significant flash flooding occurred in the Florence, Sheffield, Muscle Shoals and Tuscumbia areas (the Quad Cities) during the afternoon hours, including one swift water rescue. Some small streams and creeks over-topped their banks, but larger river flooding did not become a problem due to dry antecedent soil conditions.
