* Until 1 AM CDT /2 AM EDT/ Monday
* A general increase in heavier rain and thunderstorm activity is
anticipated this afternoon. A slow-moving line of heavy showers
and thunderstorms this afternoon will likely produce a period
of heavy rain, with 1 to 2 inches of rain possible over a period
of less than two hours. This rain will fall onto soils that are
saturated due to Thursday night's heavy rain event and
additional ongoing rainfall. Widespread additional rainfall
amounts of 1 to 3 inches are expected, with a narrow corridor of
2 to 4 inches with localized amounts in excess of 5 inches
possible through this evening, much of which may fall in a short
period of time.
* This heavy rainfall may result in flash flooding, some
possibly significant, especially of low lying or poor drainage
areas. The main concern period continues to focus on this
afternoon into this evening. Additional rises on area rivers
will continue into the upcoming work week.
PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...
A Flash Flood Watch means that conditions may develop that lead
to flash flooding. Flash flooding is a very dangerous situation.
You should monitor later forecasts and be prepared to take action
should Flash Flood Warnings be issued.
