* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...
  - Excessive, heavy rainfall will continue across the Flood
    Watch area through tonight and into Friday with 2 to 4 inches
    of rainfall possible with isolated higher amounts. Soils
    remain very saturated from previous rainfall over the last
    week and thus, the flash flood threat will only increase
    overnight into Friday from additional forecasted rainfall.


PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

You should monitor later forecasts and be alert for possible Flood
Warnings. Those living in areas prone to flooding should be prepared
to take action should flooding develop.
