Flood — Marshall, KY

Mar 22, 2010

A combination of snowmelt in upper portions of the Ohio Valley and a storm system about mid-month eventually led to minor flooding of the Ohio River. The storm system lifted out of the southern Plains on the 9th and moved northeast toward the Mid Atlantic on the 10th. A second storm system lifted northeast between the 21st and 22nd, bringing widespread showers that produced between one and two inches of rain. This second system caused flooding of the Clarks River.
