Atlantic, Iowa., reported a midday total of 2.09 inches of rain. Rolla, Mo., reported a midday total of 0.90 of an inch of rain.

Flood warnings were also issued in southwest Louisiana. Beaumont, Texas, reported a midday total of 3.17 inches of rain. Galliano, La., reported a midday total of 1.46 inches of rain.

Scattered showers continued to pop up along the southern Mid-Atlantic as Tropical Storm Julia lingered over the western Atlantic. Most areas across the northern Mid-Atlantic and New England experienced dry weather on Friday.
