RodneyS Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 Another thing that made this system unusual is that we had four straight days of at least 0.9 inches of rain per day at DCA. The last time that happened was during September 23-26, 1975, when the remnants of Hurricane Eloise produced at least an inch per day there. I've now checked the entire official precipitation record of DC (back to 1871). These are the only two periods that there were at least 0.9 inches of precipitation each day for four consecutive days. The next closest period to achieving that was October 13-16, 1942, when there were at least 0.8 inches of precipitation each day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H2O Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 Here is a side shot of a road that got washed out from the heavy rains of last week. The existing road is 20ft up from the bottom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
