A wet spring led to high rainfall totals across the area—and especially in northern Knox County.
An unofficial tally near Bicknell showed one location receiving an area-topping 22.79 inches of rain from March first to May 31st. A few miles east, along the White River in Daviess County, the total was at 22 inches.
Rainfall rates were lower to the south and west, with a Lawrence County location reporting 17 inches of rainfall. At Petersburg, the total was just over 15 and a half inches.
Regardless of location, the rain amounts made this spring among the wettest in this area’s history.
