A strong and slow-moving storm system brought waves of rainfall...heavy at times...to the

the 17th, where rainfall rates approached 1"/hour.  The heaviest rainfall observed during 
this event was across central and south-central Missouri...mainly south of the Missouri 
River. In some of these areas as much as 5-7 inches of rain was recorded.  Elsewhere, 
rainfall amounts were generally on the order of 2-4 inches, with the exception of portions 
of south-central Illinois and northeastern Missouri where 1-3 inches was observed.
