2,551 first-hand accounts of flood events in West Virginia, ranked by impact. Each is a NOAA-written narrative of the moment.
Showers and thunderstorms trained over the same area as they developed along a cold front just to the north. The training convection led to heavy amounts of rain in a short period of time for areas near the Appalachian Mountains in West Virginia.

Read the full account →Showers and thunderstorms formed along a nearly stationary boundary that crept southeastward from the Great Lakes. Precipitable water values of around 1.6 inches and weak steering flow along the boundary led to a few areas of training thunderstorms.

Read the full account →A series of convective systems moving through the Ohio Valley on the 22nd, produced sporatic wind damage across the region with modest instability and high shear in place.
Read the full account →A weak disturbance crossing through West Virginia on the morning of the 31st was accompanied by heavy downpours from showers and thunderstorms. This resulted in Paint Creek in Fayette County to rise out of its banks for a brief time and force nearby roadways to become impassable.
Read the full account →Several thunderstorm complexes moved across southeast West Virginia during the 12th into early on the 13th. Each storm moistened the ground leading to a few flash flood reports by evening into early on the 13th.

Read the full account →A wave of low pressure and surface front crossed West Virginia, producing heavy rainfall on the 16th. Generally 1 to 2 inches of rain fell on already saturated soil. This resulted in creek and stream flooding on the 16th and into the 17th.
