Flood watch in effect through Tuesday morning

The National Weather Service has issued a flood watch through Tuesday morning.

Flooding caused by excessive rainfall continues to be possible through the region.

Excessive runoff may result in flooding of rivers, creeks, streams, and other low-lying and flood-prone locations.

Heavy rain and a few thunderstorms are expected to develop across the watch area from early Tuesday morning and persisting into Tuesday afternoon and evening. Rainfall rate of 1 to 2 inches per hour on dry ground may initially enhance runoff leading to flash flooding of urbanized and low lying areas.
