| Event narrativeevent_narrative | The Princeton COOP measured 5.78 inches for the 24 hours ending at 7 AM on July 30th which was an all-time daily rainfall record at this station. The old record was 5.00 inches on January 22, 1906. Precipitation records exist from 1900-1914 and 1940 to the present at the site. Per NOAA Atlas 14 this was approximately a 500-year (.002 annual exceedance probability) recurrence interval for a 24-hour period, although most of the rain fell over a much shorter duration, roughly 3 to 5 hours. |
