...FLOOD WATCH NOW IN EFFECT THROUGH THURSDAY AFTERNOON...

* WHAT...Flooding caused by excessive rainfall continues to be
  possible.

* WHERE...Counties in Oregon: Benton, Clackamas, Clatsop, Columbia,
  Hood River, western portions of Lane, Lincoln, Linn, Marion,
  Multnomah, Polk, Tillamook, Washington, and Yamhill. Counties in
  Washington: Clark, Cowlitz, Pacific, Skamania, and Wahkiakum.

* WHEN...Through Thursday afternoon.

* IMPACTS...Excessive runoff will result in flooding of rivers,
  creeks, streams, and other low-lying and flood-prone locations.
  Landslides and debris flows are possible during this flood event.
  People, structures, and roads located below steep slopes, in
  canyons, and near the mouths of canyons may be at serious risk
  from rapidly moving landslides.

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...
  - Over the past 24 hours, around 4 to 7 inches of rain has
    fallen over the north Oregon Cascades, south Washington
    Cascades, Willapa Hills, north Oregon Coast Range, south
    Washington coast, and northern and central Oregon coast. 1.5
    to 4.5 inches of rain has fallen over the Lower Columbia,
    Cowlitz Valley, and greater Portland/Vancouver metro. This
    will maintain an elevated threat for urban and river
    flooding. An additional 1 to 2 inches of rain is expected
    Tuesday morning through Thursday afternoon over the interior
    lowlands to the north of Eugene. 3.5 to 6.5 inches of
    additional rain is expected over the Cascades and coastal
    mountains, mainly to the north of Lane County. Landslides in
    areas of steep terrain will be possible due to saturated
    soils, as well as debris flows over recently burned areas.
