Episode Narrative A slow moving low pressure system tracked across southeastern KY on April 12. Ample moisture from the Gulf of Mexico wrapped around this vertically stacked low pressure system into central Kentucky. A deformation band set up across this area. Four to 5 inches of rain fell in parts of central Kentucky leading to many reports of flash flooding and impassable roads.
Event Narrative The Nicholas county emergency manager reported numerous streams and creeks out of their banks as well as several roads closed across the county due to flooding.
