Event narrative (NOAA)
A young man and woman died when their truck was washed off Highway EE at the North Fork of the White River. The flooded section of Highway EE was at the bottom of a hill at the river. The truck ran into the water and apparently stalled and then was washed off. One inch of rain occurred in the area that evening on top of an already saturated ground from the previous days rain.
