* WHAT...Flash flooding caused by excessive rainfall continues to be
  possible.

* WHERE...Niihau, Kauai, Oahu, Molokai, and Lanai.

* WHEN...Through Friday evening.

* IMPACTS...Significant flooding may occur due to the overflow of
  streams and drainages. Roads in several areas may be closed, along
  with property damage in urban or low lying spots due to runoff.
  Landslides may also occur in areas with steep terrain.

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...
  - A kona low northwest of the state will bring the potential
    for heavy rain and thunderstorms through at least Friday. The
    focus for excessive rainfall will be over Molokai, Lanai, and
    Oahu initially, then will shift farther wester to focus over
    Oahu, Kauai, and Niihau on Friday. All islands in the Flood
    Watch area should be prepared for the possibility of flash
    flooding.


PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

You should monitor later forecasts and be prepared to take action
should Flash Flood Warnings be issued.
