In Oklahoma, where a continuous line of slow-moving thunderstorms also killed many people, new rainfall records were established.
According to Oklahoma State Climatologist Gary McManus, at least seven Oklahoma communities, including the state capital, set records for April rainfall.
According to statistics recorded since 1895, the statewide average rainfall of 8.74 inches surpassed the previous April record of 8.32 inches established in 1942, McManus said.
Only four months have passed since Oklahoma established an all-time rainfall record in November when this record rainfall occurred.
