* IMPACTS...Excessive runoff may result in flooding of rivers,
creeks, streams, and other low-lying and flood-prone locations.
Flooding may occur in poor drainage and urban areas.
* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...
- Although soils are dry ahead of this heavy rainfall event,
there is enough support in guidance for high rainfall rates
to lead to some instances of flash flooding. There will be
two rounds of heavy rainfall with the first one being late
Friday night into Saturday morning and Saturday evening into
early Sunday morning. Widespread rainfall totals of 2-4" with
isolated higher amounts up to 4-6". Rainfall rates in the
strongest storms could exceed 2-3" per hour, which could lead
to flash flooding if these rainfall rates occur for a
prolonged period of time. There is expected to be a lull in
the activity late Saturday morning into the afternoon which
will allow for drainage, so the flood threat is primarily
driven by the potential for high rainfall rates.
- http://www.weather.gov/safety/floodInstructions: You should monitor later forecasts and be alert for possible Flood Warnings. Those living in areas prone to flooding should be prepared to take action should flooding develop.
