This Hazardous Weather Outlook is for portions of southern
Illinois, southwest Indiana, western Kentucky, and southeast
Missouri.

.DAY ONE...Tonight

A Flood Watch is in effect for most of the area beginning at
midnight tonight, for a significant and widespread potential flood
event. Refer to the Watch for specific details.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Saturday through Thursday

A Flood Watch remains in effect Saturday into Saturday night for
the potential of significant and widespread flash flooding.
Given the heavy rain forecast and already wet grounds, flooding
may occur in areas not normally subject to flood impacts. Travel
may become difficult or even impossible in areas subject to
flooding Saturday evening.

In addition, there is a marginal risk for severe thunderstorms
across parts of western Kentucky Saturday afternoon and evening.
Isolated tornadoes or damaging winds are the primary anticipated
hazards if severe storms develop.

As the system departs late Saturday night and colder air works in
on its backside, the rains may briefly mix or change over to light
snow before ending. The combination of light snow during this time
of rapidly dropping temperatures may allow for slick spots to
develop on area roadways, but particularly on bridges and
overpasses.

Ongoing river flooding continues and will likely worsen along
portions of the Green and Ohio Rivers this weekend into next week,
as the weekend`s rains ultimately drain into the rivers with
time.

Bitterly cold air is forecast for the majority of next week with
wind chills dropping into the single digits or teens beginning
Sunday, and possibly dropping below zero for some areas next
week.

Last but not least, there remains a potential for accumulating
snow sufficient to cause travel impacts Tuesday into Wednesday
next week.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

Spotters should prepare for operations Saturday and Saturday
evening in the flood watch and marginal risk areas. Any reports
will be appreciated.
