Episode narrativeepisode_narrativeSouth to southwesterly winds through a deep layer of the atmosphere brought copious amounts of moisture from the Gulf of Mexico. A large low pressure system moved slowly north across the Plains. Ahead of an occluded front that arced from the low across the Ozarks, there were two rounds of heavy rain. The first round fell on the 16th, producing about 2.5 inches in the Poplar Bluff area. This saturated the ground ahead of the second round of more intense rain during the evening of the 17th. This round included a line of heavy showers and storms that dumped an inch of rain in 30 minutes. Storm totals for the two-day event were 3 to 5.5 inches. Just ahead of the occluded front, a couple hours of strong southerly winds gusting to around 45 mph produced isolated tree damage. Wind gusts were measured up to 46 mph along the Mississippi River northeast of New Madrid. In western Ripley County, a carport was damaged, and tree limbs fell on power lines.
