Scattered showers and thunderstorms will continue to develop this afternoon with more widespread showers and thunderstorms by this evening. Locally heavy rainfall...with amounts of 1 to 3 inches are expected. Localized rainfall amounts of greater than 3 inches may be possible. * Impacts...Heavy rainfall will be capable of producing quick ponding of water on roads...low lying...or poor drainage areas. Flash flooding may occur during the nighttime hours and thus may make flooding difficult to observe. PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...
