Instructions: 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.

Most of the region has already received 5 to 10 inches with isolated higher amounts of rain over the last couple of days, allowing our soils to fully saturate. Any additional rainfall tonight and tomorrow morning would quickly lead to flash flooding and river flooding. ...flash flood watch now in effect through thursday afternoon...
