At 931 PM EDT, Doppler radar indicated thunderstorms producing heavy 
rain across the warned area. Radar estimates indicate that 2 to 4 
inches of rain have already fallen, with an additional 1 to 3 inches 
of rain possible over the next few hours. Additional redevelopment 
of thunderstorms later tonight and into Wednesday morning may bring 
even more rainfall to the area. Flash flooding will be possible at 
any time, with road closures likely and potential inundation of 
structures. 

Interests should continue to heed extreme caution and pay close 
attention to the situation. If encountering flooded roadways, turn

deaths occur in vehicles.

Be especially cautious at night when it is harder to recognize the
dangers of flooding.

Please report flooding to your local law enforcement agency when you
can do so safely.
