Episode narrativeepisode_narrativeA weak frontal boundary located near the I-64 corridor provided the focus for repeated thunderstorm activity through the evening across several counties. A broad area of low pressure over the southeastern U.S. pulled very high moisture into the region allowing the slow-moving storms to be efficient rainfall producers. Rainfall amount were generally 2 to 4 inches, with isolated higher totals indicated by radar in the heavier cores occurring over a several hour period.
Event narrativeevent_narrativeThe CoCoRaHS observer at Cave Spring 2.4 SSW had a 24-hour total of 4.53 inches. This is just below the 0.1 annual chance rainfall or nearly a 10-year recurrence interval.
