episode_narrativeA thunderstorm which produced very heavy rain and frequent lightning moved slowly across Morgan County on the evening of the 16th. More than 3 inches of rain fell across the county, resulting in widespread flash flooding. Sections of Route 9 near Yellow Springs Run and Route 522 in Berkeley Springs were underwater. After the water receded, large boulders were left behind in the roadway. High water threatened homes along Warm Springs Run and flooded several parked cars. Other flooded roads included South Washington St., Fairfax St., Radio Station Rd., Greenway Dr., Johnson's Mill Rd., Independence St., and Mercer St. The swimming pool at Berkeley Springs State Park was surrounded by flood waters after debris piled up along a foot bridge and created a dam. Along Route 522, an embankment gave way creating a a small landslide which blocked a portion of the highway near Widmyer School. In Great Cacapon, a lightning strike started a fire which destroyed a home.
