A warm front lifted northward through Kansas during the early morning hours of the 15th.  Convection along the front lifted northward with the boundary and persisted for much of the day with storm re-intensification during the early afternoon hours as an upper level shortwave trough embedded within the mean central US trough moved through the plains states.  Due to the duration of convection and copious amount of atmospheric moisture in place, thunderstorms produced 3 and 5 inches of rain (as measured by storm spotters and cooperative observers) across portions of east central Kansas.  This led to several reports of flash flooding and road closures.

Periods of heavy rain between May 13 and May 16 resulted in near record river levels on much of the Spoon River. The gage at London Mills, IL recorded its third highest crest on record at 25.28 feet at 1445 CST on May 16th, which was more than 10 feet above flood stage. This was the highest crest since the major floods of July 1993. The gage at Seville, IL also recorded its third highest stage on record at 30.84 feet at 1430 CST on May 17th, which was nearly 9 feet above flood stage.  This was the highest crest in 35 years. Sandbagging efforts at London Mills and Seville prevented property damage. A levee was breached about 2.6 miles west-northwest of the town of Blyton, IL. The breach was about 500 feet across at the levee, with the cone of damage consisting of tree debris and field erosion about 1/2 mile out and 1/2 mile across at the widest point. Two smaller levees also breached about two miles downstream. These breaches and the associated flooding closed a large partion of Illinois Route 9 and caused significant inundation of agricultural land. There was one fatality due to the flooding. A 45 year old man drove around a barricade into the floodwaters of the Spoon River about 1 mile southwest of London Mills and drowned around 1930CST on May 16th. His body was found on May 18th about 85 yards from where he entered the river.
