Well above normal rainfall upstream on the White, Wabash, and Ohio Rivers late March through mid-April led to minor flooding occurring mid-month along the White, Wabash, and Ohio Rivers in Southwest Indiana. River crests occurred between the 19th and 21st, with a swift decline in river levels bringing an end of flooding shortly after. Impacts were primarily flooding of low-lying areas, with several rural roads, agricultural areas, and oil fields affected.
