Event continued from April. Snowmelt and icemelt caused water to rise on the Tanana River and Piledriver Slough, and resulting in  minor flooding of various properties beginning the night of the 25th. Ice buildup on roads and properties was created first by an Ice Jam event on the Tanana River during November 2002, and then surface water and groundwater flooding in early January 2003, resulting in up 2-foot thick layers of ice on the Old Richardson Highway and on properties near the Piledriver slough.  On April 29th, another ice jam formed on the nearest branch of the Tanana River, next to the partial one that had formed and remained since November.  This caused water from the Tanana River to flow into Piledriver Slough. The water in Piledriver Slough then went overbank and flooded properties and some homes, threatening other homes. By late afternoon on the 29th, water continued to rise breaching a dike on the Tanana River and rapidly raising water levels in the area.  Water continued to rise into the beginning of May, flooding about 100 homes in all and threatening another 50 homes. The Old Richardson Highway was impassible, which is the main road serving many of the residents in this subdivision.  During the first few days of May water levels fluctuated, but homes remained flooded or surrounded by water. On the morning of May 3rd, the Ice Jam shifted and gradually moved downstream, and water levels began dropping significantly.  By late afternoon on May 4, the water was completely contained inside the Tanana River, and Piledriver Slough had also dropped significantly. Many surrounding areas still had ponded water due to the high groundwater level.  The Fairbanks North Star Borough Department of Emergency Services and Salcha Rescue activated an Incident Command Center in the area and helped those residents requesting evacuation.  Property Damage is an estimate. Event continued into May.

The first two of what would be three rounds of severe weather occurred in the pre-dawn and late morning to early afternoon hours.  A strong low level jet developed thunderstorms north of a warm front that was located across Southern Iowa and Central Illinois.  Due to low freezing levels aloft north of the warm front, storms were prolific hail producers with numerous reports of pea to just under three quarter inch size hail amounts.

The season's first Bermuda high became established off the Atlantic coast from March 17 through 19. Across northwest Connecticut,   temperatures climbed well above the freezing mark, allowing the unusually deep winter snow pack to begin to melt in earnest. A weak cold front then dropped south from eastern Canada, cooling temperatures down by the 20th. However, this front lifted right back north as a warm front loaded with moisture on March 20 and 21. This warm front brought 1 to 2 inches of rainfall over the region. The rain further  accelerated the snowmelt and resultant runoff.  The runoff produced minor flooding on the Housatonic on the 21st.  The river gage at Gaylordsville crested at 9.46 feet, nearly a foot and a half above flood stage. Further downstream, the gage at Stevenson crested at 11.86 feet, nearly a foot above flood level. Some property damage was reported along the Housatonic.

A strong surge of moisture, albeit narrow, pushed into Iowa during the afternoon hours of the 13th.  A weak frontal system advanced across the plains into the state.  Temperatures warmed in to the 70s with dew points approaching 60 near an approaching warm frontal boundary from the south.  Lifted indices were in the -3 to -4 C. range.  A line of thunderstorms developed over Nebraska and advanced into western Iowa by evening.  One storm developed ahead of the line in Carroll County.  This storm became severe and dropped nickle to golf ball size hail in Carroll County.  Although radar gave strong suggestions of a tornado development, only a rotating wall cloud was observed.  As the main line of storms moved in from the west, there were numerous reports of 40 to 50 MPH winds along the line.  Once storm produced severe weather as 60 MPH winds blew though Guthrie County north of Stuart.

Several trees were blown down along SR 49.  A roof was blown off a shop and windows were broken out of a mobile home in New Site.
One of the most destructive hailstorms on record in far western Kentucky began near the Mississippi River just south of Cairo, Illinois. The storm moved east across Ballard County, producing quarter-size hail. One-inch diameter hail was reported on U.S. Highway 60 at mile marker 7, near Barlow. Hailstones grew larger as the storm crossed McCracken County, pounding the southwest side of Paducah and Lone Oak with hail from golf ball to tennis ball size. Thousands of vehicles were dented, and hail broke some windshields, including the windshield of a deputy sheriff's vehicle. The roofs of hundreds of buildings sustained at least minor damage. The only known injury occurred in Paducah, when a woman leaving church received cuts and abrasions from hailstones. She was treated at a local hospital. As the storm continued east across northern Marshall County, hail up to baseball size broke the windshields of many vehicles and damaged the siding and roofing of homes. A downburst with estimated 80 MPH winds began along Highway 641 and continued east for 3 miles toward Kentucky Lake. Numerous trees were blown down, some of which landed on houses. In Lyon County, the storm produced golf-ball hail east of Barkley Dam before finally weakening. Although total damage estimates as reported by insurance companies are in the tens of millions of dollars, the exact amount will never be known.

The Ohio River rose above flood stage in response to repeated very heavy thunderstorms. The flooding was more significant downriver from the confluence of the Tennessee and Cumberland Rivers. Flood crests were generally 7 to 10 feet above flood stage. The flooding had a major impact on farming operations in the flood plain, causing some farmers to lose planted crops. Flooding of riverside parks and recreational facilities occurred. A few side roads near the river were flooded. At Shawneetown, where flood stage is 33 feet, the crest of 40 feet was on May 17. At Brookport Lock, across from Paducah, the crest of 46.5 feet was on May 14. Flood stage at Brookport is 37 feet. At Grand Chain, where flood stage is 42 feet, the crest of 52 feet was on May 14.

The Ohio River rose above flood stage in response to repeated severe thunderstorm activity. Flooding was more significant downriver from the confluence with the Tennessee River. At Paducah, where flood stage is 39 feet, the river crested at 44.6 feet on May 14. This resulted in moderate flooding, with some closed side roads and inundated parks and campgrounds. Since planting season had begun, the impact on farming operations in the flood plain was significant. Upriver from the Tennessee, the flood crest at Uniontown in Union County was 3 feet above flood stage. This resulted in minor flooding, except to those farmers who had planted in the flood plain.

Light freezing rain fell in the northern valleys of Sussex County from around midnight into the afternoon of the 20th. Untreated roads were perilous. An intense low pressure system moved from Oklahoma the morning of the 19th, to Arkansas the morning of the 20th and into the Great Lakes on the 21st. While a high pressure system initially brought cold, dry air near the surface, it moved from New England on the 19th into the western Atlantic by the morning of the 20th. The Atlantic Ocean trajectory brought warmer air near the surface into Sussex County during the day on the 20th and rose temperatures above the freezing mark.

Reported by: TRAINED SPOTTER

A large arctic high pressure system became established over the James Bay region of Canada early on Thursday, April 3. The leading edge of this unseasonably chilly air mass worked southward across New York State and adjacent New England, stalling just to the south of the region by late on the 3rd. A series of low pressure systems propogated along the strong stationary boundary were able to produce copious  moisture. The air was cold enough for mostly snow in southern Vermont with the first storm Thursday night into Friday. Precipitation during the day Friday was mainly freezing drizzle, but another storm brought more significant precipitation to the region again by Friday night into Saturday. This time, the precipitation fell mostly as sleet. By the time the precipitation ended midday Saturday, a mantle of seven or more inches of snow and sleet had accumulated across Bennington County with a little icing as well. Sunderland reported 8.8 inches of snow and sleet. No unusual problems were reported to the National Weather Service as a result of this late winter storm in Bennington County.
