Episode narrativeepisode_narrativeTraining of thunderstorms moving east/southeast through south-central and southeast Wisconsin overnight, resulted in isolated flash floods in the vicinity of Barvenveld, and some minor urban and small stream flooding elsewhere in Sauk, Dane, Rock, Green, and Lafayette counties. The rain that fell in this episode nearly saturated the ground in these counties, and set the stage for future flash flooding during the periods of August 18-19, and August 22nd. A rainfall graphic is attached to the Iowa County flash flood event for August 18-19th event in Iowa County. Synoptically, a stalled surface front extended from central Iowa to northern Illinois. Mid-level warm-air advection over the front set up a thunderstorm initiation zone that extended from southern Minnesota to south-central Wisconsin. Refer to the August 18-19, and 22nd flash flood events for related information.
Event narrativeevent_narrativeTraining thunderstorms moved east-southeast across portions of Rock County and dumped heavy rains overnight into the pre-dawn hours of August 5th. Although there wasn't a flash flood event, some basement flooding was noted due to drain-backups and sump pump failures. Consequently some basement contents sustained water damage. Additionally, many small creeks or streams in Rock County reached bankfull or flood stage; although no problems or road closures were noted. Specific rainfall totals include 5.45 at a spotter's location 4.9 miles southeast of Janesville, 4.5 in Evansville, 4.22 at a co-op site in Afton, 3.72 at a co-op site in Clinton, and 3.45 in Milton. Refer to the Flash Flood event for Iowa County on August 5, 2007, for related details.
