...FLOOD WATCH REMAINS IN EFFECT THROUGH FRIDAY AFTERNOON...

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

* WHERE...Portions of Louisiana, including the following parishes,
  Allen, Avoyelles, Beauregard, Evangeline, Lafayette, Northern
  Acadia, Northern Calcasieu, Northern Jefferson Davis, Rapides,
  Southern Acadia, Southern Calcasieu, Southern Jefferson Davis, St.
  Landry, Upper St. Martin, Upper Vermilion and Vernon and southeast
  Texas, including the following areas, Hardin, Lower Jefferson,
  Northern Jasper, Northern Newton, Northern Orange, Southern
  Jasper, Southern Newton, Southern Orange, Tyler and Upper
  Jefferson.

* WHEN...Through Friday afternoon.

* IMPACTS...Excessive runoff may result in flooding of rivers,
  creeks, streams, and other low-lying and flood-prone locations.
  Creeks and streams may rise out of their banks. Flooding may occur
  in poor drainage and urban areas.

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...
  - A storm system will slowly move through the region Thursday
    and Friday. Widespread rainfall of 2 to 6 inches is possible
    with the potential for 6 to 12 inches locally. Southeast
    Texas north of I-10 into south-central Louisiana has the
    highest probability of seeing these higher totals. This will
    fall on already saturated soils and with ongoing flooding and
    or elevated water ways. Rainfall rates with the strongest
    showers and storms will be in excess of 2 inches in one hour.
    Another round of showers and storms will be possible later
    Friday into early Saturday, but confidence is too low to
    include in the watch at this time.
