Very heavy rain over several hours led to the second episode of flash flooding in the Bismarck area in less than 24 hours. This flash flooding was no where near as severe as the day before (13th) and was concentrated on the south side of the city. Several feet of water was flowing through some streets. Some basements took on water and some trailer homes were surrounded by flood waters.
