| Episode narrativeepisode_narrative | A persistent upper air system anchored over the area for several days late in the month brought excessive rain with flash flooding to much of Osage, Franklin, Coffey and Anderson counties. Some parts of Douglas and Lyon counties did not escape the rain either with some flooding and flash flooding in those counties too. The highest amounts were centered in Anderson county with 15 to 18 inches of rain common. The highest amount was 20 inches in central Anderson county. 10 to 15 inches was common across much of Coffey, Franklin and Osage counties. Parts of Douglas and Lyon counties topped out in the 4 to 8 inch range. Record flooding occurred along the Pottawatomie Creek at both Scipio and Lane Kansas...and at Quenemo and Pomona along the Marais des Cygnes. The flooding near Scipio appeared to be the worst since the 1850's. The flood gates in Ottawa were closed to protect the city from flooding along the Marais des Cygnes although the crest was not a record there. The bridge that connects the north and south parts of Ottawa was covered with water and only the flood gates kept downtown Ottawa from flooding. 40 to 50 homes were evacuated in Franklin county with 10 to 15 alone in the small community of Lane. Several swift water rescues were done in Anderson and Coffey counties...some with the assistance of a black hawk helicopter. By late Saturday, the 30th, a state of local disaster had been declared in Coffey and Anderson counties. As the month ended, a number of counties were awaiting state and federal declarations of emergency. |
