Heavy rainfall occurred across central and southern West<br />
Virginia in June 2016 as a result of repeated rounds of torrential<br />
thunderstorms. The storms caused major flooding and flash<br />
flooding in central and southern West Virginia with Kanawha,<br />
Fayette, Nicholas, and Greenbrier Counties among the hardest<br />
hit. Over the duration of the storms, from 8 to 9.37 inches of<br />
rain was reported in areas in Greenbrier County. Peak streamflows<br />
were the highest on record at 7 locations, and streamflows<br />
at 18 locations ranked in the top five for the period of<br />
record at U.S. Geological Survey streamflow-gaging stations<br />
used in this study. Following the storms, U.S. Geological Survey<br />
hydrographers identified and documented 422 high-water<br />
marks in West Virginia, noting location and height of the water<br />
above land surface. Many of these high-water marks were<br />
used to create flood-inundation maps for selected communities<br />
of West Virginia that experienced flooding in June 2016.<br />
Digital datasets of the inundation areas, mapping boundaries,<br />
and water depth rasters are available online.
