Several waves of low pressure at the surface moved up the Ohio River Valley on the 6th and 7th. Rainfall amounts across Southeast Ohio through the period were 2 to 3 inches, with some localized amounts over 3 inches. This led to fairly widespread, but generally minor flooding on the 6th and 7th. As the water worked through the rivers, some river flooding also occurred from the 8th through the 10th, including the Hocking River, Muskingum River, and Ohio River.
