EastCoast NPZ Posted May 14 Share Posted May 14 Looks like the rains out here are finally collapsing as the stuff fires around the bay. Hopefully you guys cash in on some of that tonight.

wxdude64 Posted May 14 Share Posted May 14 1 hour ago, WxUSAF said: All Allegany county schools closed today due to flooding Yep. Several creeks/branches out of their banks, although the river has crested and gone down a bit. 0.71" here, another rainfall record, breaks 1999's 0.67", and an event total of 3.39". The western end/side of the county got a LOT more water, especially yesterday, with two day totals in the 5-7 inch range. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
