* IMPACTS...Excessive runoff may result in flooding of rivers,
creeks, streams, and other low-lying and flood-prone locations.
Flooding may occur in poor drainage and urban areas.

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...
- A plume of tropical moisture will overspread the area and will
combine with strong lift and weak to moderate instability to
support areas of intense rainfall rates and an accompanying risk
of flooding. Total rainfall of 3 to 6 inches are forecast, with
locally higher amounts possible. The highest amounts are expected
to be where bands of thunderstorms are most persistent.
