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.

MOTORISTS SHOULD BE ON EXTRA ALERT AS WATER CONTINUES TO APPROACH
MANY ROADS AND ANY FLOODING AT NIGHT WILL BE NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE TO
SEE UNTIL ITS TOO LATE.
