- At 522 PM CDT, Doppler radar and automated rain gauges indicated
that a few rounds of moderate to heavy rain since early this
morning has dumped as much as 2-5 inches across much of the area,
with the overall-highest amounts over central and southwestern
Jewell County. At least minor/nuisance flooding of various rural
roads and low-lying areas is likely to occur, and was confirmed
to have occurred earlier today in Jewell County by emergency
management. At least portions of the Warning area could receive
at least another 1-2 inches before rain eases up later this
evening, and additional rain could fall during the day Thursday
before rain completely ends for several days. Area creeks and
rivers will also experience at least noticeable within-bank
rises, but actual flooding of main rivers is less certain.

This areal Flood Warning effectively replaces the previously-
issued Warning valid until 9 PM this evening for southern Jewell
County.
