Minor flooding that began along portions of the Ohio River in June ended very early in July. Low-lying woods, fields, and a few county roads remained underwater. A riverside park in Paducah was affected. A trend toward somewhat drier weather allowed these rivers to fall below flood stage on the first day of July.
