  • December 2015 Historic Heavy Rainfall and Flooding Event
    December 2015 Historic Heavy Rainfall and Flooding Event St. Louis Overview A prolonged period of rainfall occurred from the early morning hours of December 26th to the evening of December 28th. The heaviest rainfall occurred in a 50 to 75 mile wide swath from southwest Missouri through the Greater St. Louis Metropolitan Area and into central Illinois. Storm total rainfall within this swath ranged from 6 to 12 inches, with lighter amounts extending both northwest and southeast. Some of the precipitation fell as a wintry mix of freezing rain, sleet and snow across northwest portions of the state during the event. The heavy rainfall led to widespread life threatening flash flooding and historic river flooding along the Bourbeuse and Meramec Rivers. Three Interstates were closed due to river flooding. Interstate 70 was closed in St. Peters, Missouri and Pocahontas, Illinois, Interstate 44 was closed in Valley Park and two locations west of Rolla, Missouri, and Interstate 55 was closed near Arnold, Missouri. This severely impacted travel and commerce across the center of the country. Six fatalities were confirmed due to flash flooding and thousands of business and homes were damaged or destroyed by this historic flooding event. The total cost of this disaster is expected to top 1 billion dollars. Storm Total Rainfall ST. LOUIS 9.18" COLUMBIA 4.49" JEFFERSON CITY 5.17" CHESTERFIELD 7.85" ST.
