episode_narrativeSummary of events for April 24 1999:Thunderstorms formed on the morning of April 24 along a stationary front running east-west across southeast Oklahoma. Some of these storms became severe during the day, producing marginally severe hail and wind. However, most of these thunderstorms moved eastward along a similar path running across Pittsburg, Latimer, and northern Pushmataha Counties. This led to saturated grounds and flash flooding. Listed here are some of the heavier rainfall amounts from the area for the day (in inches): Stuart_3SE Stuart...4.29, McCurtain_1SE...2.75, Clayton_15WNW...2.60, McAlester_4S...2.10, and Wilburton_2SW...1.41
