Severe Thunderstorms and Heavy Rainfall Across the South; Heat Spreads Across the West and Southern Plains

A couple of frontal boundaries will move east and south from the Plains to the Gulf and Atlantic coastlines. These boundaries will focus showers and thunderstorms through the weekend, with scattered severe thunderstorms from the Southern Plains and across the Gulf Coast states. Locally heavy rainfall may also occur, which may be welcome news across drought areas. Meanwhile, heat spreads westward. Read More >

Overview

Multiple waves of precipitation moved through our region from the evening of February 20th through the morning of February 24th. A warm front lifted across the region on Saturday afternoon, with showers and thunderstorms forming along it, followed by a cold front that quickly moved through during the late afternoon and evening hours. Severe thunderstorms accompanied this system with damaging winds and numerous tornadoes, including two EF-2 tornadoes that occurred in the Hopkinsville, KY and Matthews, MO areas. There was also widespread flooding across our area due to 5 to 8 inches of rain falling over a 4 to 5 day period. Flash flood warnings were in effect for the vast majority of the region late Saturday afternoon and evening.

Graphic below shows 5 day rainfall totals from Tuesday evening February 20th through the early morning hours on Sunday February 25th.

Hydrograph

Amounts of 5 to 7 inches were common over this 5 day period, with some totals up around 8 inches.

Below is an animation of 6-hour rainfall amounts during the afternoon and evening of February 24. This was the period of strongest thunderstorms and most intense flash flooding. The strip of heaviest rainfall from Poplar Bluff to Cape Girardeau to the Marion/Carbondale area was associated with numerous street closures and several high water rescues. The Cape Girardeau airport measured exactly 3 inches of rain in 4 hours between 3 P.M. and 7 P.M. Disregard the small area of conspicuously low rainfall between Paducah and Cape Girardeau, which was due to an equipment malfunction.
