A warm front moved through the area during the early morning hours of the 28th. Warm and moist air associated with a tropical air mass overran the relatively cooler air in place, resulting in heavy rainfall. Also, the steering flow aloft was weak so showers and thunderstorms were slow to move. This enhanced the flooding threat. Some of the flooding persisted on larger streams into the 29th.
