Storms hit city, county

Decatur Daily Democrat:

Adams County was almost floating today after a series of thunderstorms drove through the region as one of the wettest springs in local history continues.

The worst-off appear to be the area's farmers, who have been unable to plant crops due to the continual muddy conditions in fields.

Decatur and Adams County emerged mostly unscathed but drenched from the seemingly endless storms which rolled through the area during a period of 10 top 12 hours on Wednesday afternoon and early this morning.

There was some damage in the county, but no injuries.

Decatur weather station officials recorded 1.58 inches of rain, giving the city a total of 3.14 inches in the past three days.
