An ice jam released upstream of Circle City and sent a surge of water and ice through the city during the 19th, causing major flooding by inundating the city with 5 to 8 feet of water. Most structures were flooded except for the school which was slightly more elevated. All residents were evacuated to higher ground. The area upstream from the boat launch on the slough was most affected as the water levels brought a considerable amount of ice right into the homes in that area. Elsewhere, the main effects were water damage. One vehicle carrying village elders tried to drive through the flooded street to safety and went off of the road into the ditch. They were rescued in the bucket of a front loader and taken to safety.  Water levels according to a long-time resident were the 2nd highest in over 50 years, with only the floods in 1989 more severe. Water levels began falling in the late afternoon and receded below flood level by mid-evening on the 19th. Damage amounts are estimated, and include repairs to 8 homes with major damage and 7 homes with minor damage, along with nearly 1 million dollars expended in emergency response and road repair.

This Sunday afternoon event was part of the same large-scale system that produced a couple severe thunderstorms the previous day. A digging upper-level trough was over the western United States, while low pressure continued to organize over South Dakota, becoming vertically-stacked by evening. The associated cold front progressed through North Central Kansas during peak heating, initiating the thunderstorms. Prior to thunderstorm development, a subtle short-wave trough moved through, introducing cooler and drier air aloft and increasing potential instability. The exit region of an 85 knot upper-level jet streak nosed into Oklahoma, coupling with the cold front to create deep, large-scale lift.
Surface temperatures peaked around 80, while dewpoints were in the 60s ahead of the front. MLCAPE was not overly impressive, with 1000-1500 J/kg ahead of the front. Thunderstorms were numerous this afternoon, especially over eastern Kansas where the first batch of multicell storms developed. A second batch also affected eastern Kansas but they began modestly over North Central Kansas as a few scattered storms. The strongest of these storms developed over eastern Rooks county, just after 6 pm CDT, and intensified as it moved east across Osborne and Mitchell counties. Upon entering Mitchell county around 7:10 pm CDT, the storm bowed outward. This is when it began producing wind damage roughly along Highway 24, from Glen Elder east to Beloit. Trees and large branches were blown down, and a roof was blown off a building at a lumber yard. In Beloit, winds of 63 mph were measured at the airport.
