* Through Friday morning

* thunderstorms this evening and tonight will have the potential
to produce rainfall rates of 1 to 2 inches an hour. These storms
will be training... or moving over the same area... and this will
increase the threat for flash flooding.

* Flash flooding can occur quickly... thus roads can flood in a
very short period of time. Small rivers and streams can also
rise rapidly... and culverts can fill up or become blocked by
debris quickly. All of these situations can lead to flooding in
a short period of time and create locally dangerous conditions.

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.
