* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...
  - Widespread rainfall amounts of 2 to 3 inches occurred this
    morning, particularly focused across southeast Missouri,
    western Kentucky, and far southern Illinois. Localized higher
    amounts up to 5 inches were observed. Another round of very
    heavy rain is expected with severe thunderstorms through this
    evening. This likely will lead to additional rainfall amounts
    of 1 to 3 inches, with localized higher amounts possible.
    This will lead to a heightened flash flooding concern,
    especially in those areas that already received flooding this
    morning. Significant flash flooding is possible in some of
    these locations this evening.
