A slow moving cold front dropped into the area from the northeast. The airmass was very warm and humid ahead of the boundary, and that led to the development of showers and thunderstorms with heavy rainfall. The storm motion was slow due to light winds aloft, so the heavy rain led to instances of flooding and flash flooding.
