| episode_narrative | A slow moving low pressure system moved northeast from southern Texas the morning of the 12th into southern Mississippi the morning of the 13th and into West Virginia the morning of the 14th. A second low pressure system formed near the Delmarva Peninsula during the day on the 14th and moved well offshore that night. The slow movement by the low gave the region about 24 hours of steady rain from around noon on the 13th into the early afternoon of the 14th. The heaviest rain (about two-thirds of the storm total) fell during the morning and early afternoon of the 14th. The highest storm totals were in the northern half of the state. Storm totals ranged from around an inch in Sussex County to nearly two inches in New Castle County. The heavy rain caused flooding along the Christina River. At Coochs Bridge, the Christina River reached its 9 foot flood stage at 145 p.m. EST on the 14th, crested at 9.8 feet at 3 p.m. EST on the 14th and was back within bankfull at 6 p.m. EST on the 14th. Elsewhere, some urban and poor drainage flooding occurred, but no other problems were reported. Storm totals included 1.80 inches in Newark (New Castle County), 1.60 inches at the New Castle County Airport, 1.40 inches in Dover (Kent County) and 1.05 inches in Georgetown (Sussex County). |
