Flood, Stark

Where: Stark forecast zone
Reported by: OFFICIAL NWS OBS.
Coordinates: 40.814, -81.366 (the zone’s center; the record gives no point)

Showers and thunderstorms dumped one to two inches of rain on already saturated ground causing Niminshillen Creek at North Industry to go into flood on the evening of the 3rd. The creek crested at 8.9 feet early on the 4th. Flooding was confined to lowland areas along Ross Avenue and Ninth Street in Canton. Flooding also forced the closure of several roads in Massillon.

What these are

Flood: Flooding that develops more slowly than a flash flood: rivers leaving their banks, or water standing over land for an extended time.

After NWS Directive 10-1605, the rules offices file Storm Data by.
