One resident in Whiting, Kansas says 8 inches of rain fell in Whiting causing ditches to fill with water and some into raging streams. Water covered roads, washing out gravel covering the roads.
Highway 9 leading to Whiting was covered with water in a couple places.
In Valley Falls, the Delaware River and Peters creek was running strong with logs and other debris floating down stream.
