Flash Flood in Schuyler County, New York

Nearly stationary thunderstorms dumped between 2 and 3 inches of rain in less than 3 hours across the southern half of Schuyler County during the afternoon. Two day rainfall totals were 3 and 6 inches. Thunderstorms also moved across the county on the 22nd. The heaviest rain fell across Monterey, Townsend, Montour Falls, Beaver Dams, Watkins Glen and Odessa. The heavy rain caused flash flooding that closed many roads, and created several mudslides. In the town of Dix, just west of Watkins Glen International Speedway, a bridge was washed out on County Route 16.
