Nov 4, 2004
Warm frontal rain began near 0000E, but intensified toward dawn. Embedded convection caused narrow bands of heavy rain to cross the county from southwest to northeast between 0500E and 0830E. The rain ended by midmorning, as the warm front lifted north of Lawrence County. A 2 to 3 inch rain maximum fell in 6 to 10 hours. The corridor of maximum rain went from near Sheridan on northeast toward Scottown. The worst flooding appeared to be concentrated along the small drainage of Lick Creek. A
