1,019 first-hand accounts of flood events in Maryland, ranked by impact. Each is a NOAA-written narrative of the moment.
An area of low pressure tracked through the Ohio River Valley and up through the Great Lakes Region. A strong low level jet enhanced moisture flow into the low pressure system leading to an extended period of moderate rain that caused widespread minor flooding with isolated…

Read the full account →A line of heavy showers and embedded thunderstorms ahead of a cold front was followed by moderate rains behind the front. This combination caused several roads to become submerged in the Annapolis area, including most of the normally flood-prone highways.
Read the full account →A series of thunderstorms preceding a cold front dropped three to seven inches of rain across the Eastern Shore mainly during the first half of the day on the 14th. The greatest concentration of heavier rain was in Kent and northern Queen Anne's Counties.
Read the full account →The combination of strong high pressure over eastern Canada and weak low pressure off the southern New England coast, resulted in prolonged northeast, east and southeast winds which caused minor to major (tidal) coastal flooding across portions of the Lower Maryland Eastern…
