Event narrative (NOAA)
One to three inches of rain fell over Shannon County. All low areas that typically flood during periods of excessive rainfall were flooded. A 14 year old male attempted to cross a flooded creek in extreme northeast Shannon County near the community of Bunker. He lost grip of a cable he was using to keep stable in the swift flowing water. He was swept downstream where he drowned.
