Flood in White County, Illinois

The Wabash, Little Wabash, and Ohio Rivers rose back above flood stage late in the month. These river rises were in response to a series of nearly stationary fronts and outflow boundaries between the 16th and 24th. Numerous rounds of showers and storms occurred during this period. Rainfall totals during this time frame were between 3 and 6 inches. This round of river flooding was generally minor, except for moderate flooding on the Wabash River at Mt. Carmel. The minor flooding, which primarily affected low-lying woods and fields, continued into July at most locations.
