.Abundant moisture across the region will combine with a weak upper
level storm system and rain from last night has saturated the
ground, all of this will give us an enhanced risk of flash flooding
today through early Wednesday morning. Any thunderstorms that
develop today and tonight will be very efficient rain makers.
Isolated rainfall amounts of 2 to 3 inches of rain will be possible
which will lead to flash flooding.
