episode_narrativeOn the evening of the 2nd, as one low pressure system headed into the Great Lakes, a second low pressure system formed along its frontal boundary along the coastal plains of the South Atlantic States. Not only did this second low pressure system increase the pressure gradient (or surface pressure difference between it and a strong high pressure system over the Canadian Maritimes), but it also brought heavy rain into the region. Heavy rain fell for most of the morning of the 3rd. Storm totals for the entire event included 2.82 inches in Milford (Kent County), 2.70 inches at Dover AFB, 2.68 inches in Greenwood (Sussex County), 1.89 inches in Wilmington (New Castle County), 1.60 inches in Newark (New Castle County) and 1.49 inches at the New Castle County Airport. The usual poor drainage flooding occurred, but no other serious flooding was reported.
