The partial remnants of Tropical Depression Dolly, which impacted the lower Texas Gulf Coast, ushered copious amount of deep tropical moisture into the central plains and Midwest. As an upper level storm system from the central Rockies interacted with Dolly's remnants, numerous showers and thunderstorms developed across central Missouri. The slow movement of the storm system, coupled with the training and back building individual cells, set the stage for very heavy rainfall and flooding. Widespread amounts of 2 to 4 inches were noted across central Missouri. The Interstate 70 corridor was particularly hard hit, with upwards of 5 to 8.5 inches of rain being recorded. Several flash flood warnings were issued, with numerous reports of flash flooding received. In addition, several rivers responded to the rainfall prompting several river flood warnings to be issued.
