Given the very saturated soils from recent heavy rain events, additional brief heavy rainfall of one to two inches may quickly lead to flooding of flood prone and other low-lying areas due to rapid runoff.

Be sure to monitor later forecasts and be prepared to take action should Flash Flood Warnings be issued.
