Event narrative (NOAA)
A Shannon County resident was swept off a low water bridge during the early morning hours of July 5th after isolated thunderstorms produced heavy rainfall causing a small stream to become swollen and overflow its banks. The driver attempted to drive over the flooded low water bridge and was swept nearly 150 yards down stream where his car and body were found on July 13th.
