that thunderstorms earlier today dumped a fairly widespread 1.5
to 3.5 inches of rain across much of the Advisory area. Rain has
since ended across the vast majority of the area, but minor
flooding possibly continues as a result of continued runoff.
Furthermore, another generally 1 to 2 inches of rain, and
possibly more, is likely to fall over the Advisory area yet this

flooding issues. A Flood Watch is in effect for the area through
7 AM Sunday morning.
