| Episode narrativeepisode_narrative | A significant hydrologic event took place May 4-5 as an upper level low tracked across the Tennessee Valley and pushed a complex frontal system through the region overnight. Deep layer moisture transport from the Gulf of Mexico and low level southeast flow led to atmospheric saturation. In addition, strong jet dynamics and diffluence aloft, along with upslope flow, led to heavy rain along and east of the Blue Ridge Mountains. 24-hour rainfall totals ranged from 3-5 inches along the Blue Ridge and foothills. The top five rain gauge reports (in inches) for 24 hours ending 800 AM EDT on May 5th included Adney Gap IFLOWS (ADNV2) 5.17, Glasgow IFLOWS (GLSV2) 4.50, Sugarloaf Mtn. IFLOWS (SUGV2) 4.47, Trappers Lodge IFLOWS (TRAV2) 4.22 and Copper Hill COOP (COPV2) 3.41. |
