Creeks and streams may rise out of their banks. Low-water crossings may be flooded. Extensive street flooding and flooding of creeks and rivers are possible. Area creeks and streams are running high and could flood with more heavy rain. * ADDITIONAL DETAILS... - Flash flooding and flooding caused by excessive rainfall is expected.

These amounts and resultant flooding creates a particularly dangerous situation. - http://www.weather.gov/safety/flood
