How much rain did the Green Bay area receive July 5 and 6?
The Green Bay area received 2 inches of rain between July 5 and 6, with 1.88 inches of rain coming on July 5, according to the National Weather Service Green Bay.
The weather service reported at 7:40 p.m. July 5 that Green Bay received 1.13 inches of rain in 45 minutes. While it wasn't a record-setting downpour, the rainfall rates were at 4-5 inches per hour during that period, said Jason Alumbaugh, a meteorologist for the National Weather Service Green Bay.
"Those rainfall rates are pretty out of the ordinary. That's just due to the really abundant moisture that we had in place ahead of the cold front," Alumbaugh said.
Street flooding on the west side of Green Bay was reported to the weather service following the July 5 storms, with some roads temporarily closed due to the flooding.
Areas north of Green Bay received well over 2 inches of rain, with Sturgeon Bay and Sister Bay receiving 2-3 inches between July 5 and6. The average rainfall for the month of July for the Green Bay area is 3.62 inches.
