  TO SHOW SCATTERED RAIN SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS MOVING INTO AND
  THROUGH THE REGION FROM THE SOUTHWEST AND SOUTH. SOME LOCATIONS

USUALLY DEEPER THAN THEY APPEAR. JUST ONE FOOT OF FLOWING WATER IS 
POWERFUL ENOUGH TO SWEEP VEHICLES OFF THE ROAD. WHEN ENCOUNTERING 
FLOODED ROADS MAKE THE SMART CHOICE...TURN AROUND...DONT DROWN.
