Primed by 1 to 3 inches of rainfall on June 17-18, starting June 20, the area was impacted adversely by several very slow moving mid-level waves which drifted across the northern and central Plains during the following week. High precipitable water and persistent lift forcing resulted in a widespread 4 to 9 inches of rainfall, inundating crop and pasture land as well as several roads.
