1. 8:00 pm CDT on August 13th. A second straight day of scattered marginal severe weather has just ended. Some impressive rainfall totals (see map below) caused minor flash-flooding in parts of western Oklahoma. Examine the Flash Flood Guidance from the Arkansas-Red River Basin Forecast Center.
- About how much rainfall in one hour would it take to cause flooding along I-35 south of OKC? In three hours? In six hours?
- What about Beckham and Greer Counties in far western Oklahoma?
- Why do you think these values are different?
