episode_narrativeA large swath of moderate to heavy rain with embedded thunderstorms moved across the Delmarva Peninsula during the day on the 22nd. Rainfall totals averaged around half an inch per hour during the thunderstorms and storm totals across the Eastern Shore averaged between one and three inches. The combination of the heavy rain and melting snow produced roadway flooding and ponding of water in poor drainage areas. Several homes in Talbot County suffered basement flooding. Storm totals included 2.03 inches in Stevensville (Queen Anne's County), 2.00 inches in Royal Oak (Talbot County), 1.77 inches in Sassafras (Kent County) and 1.50 inches in Federalsburg (Caroline County). The low pressure system responsible for the heavy rain developed along the Gulf Coast States on the 21st and moved northeast into the Tennessee Valley the morning of the 22nd and into Pennsylvania the morning of the 23rd. The strongest surge of warm, unstable air preceding its warm front occurred during the day on the 22nd.
