* SEVERAL BANDS OF SHOWERS AND SOME THUNDERSTORMS WITH LOCALLY
  HEAVY RAIN AT TIMES ARE EXPECTED TO OCCUR INTO THIS EVENING.
  WHILE GENERAL AMOUNTS SHOULD AVERAGE 1.0 TO 1.5 INCHES, SOME
  LOCALIZED AMOUNTS REACHING UP TO FOUR INCHES ARE POSSIBLE. THE
  GREATEST CHANCE FOR THUNDERSTORMS IS DURING THIS AFTERNOON.

* EXPECT POOR DRAINAGE FLOODING AND PONDING OF WATER ON SOME
  ROADWAYS, WHICH WILL SLOW TRAVEL AT TIMES. SMALLER STREAMS AND
  CREEKS COULD LOCALLY FLOOD, ESPECIALLY IF SIMILAR AREAS THAT HAD
  VERY HEAVY RAIN ON SUNDAY EXPERIENCE IT AGAIN INTO THIS EVENING.
  IF THE RAIN FALLS HEAVY ENOUGH IN A SHORT PERIOD OF TIME, THE
  THREAT FOR LOCAL FLASH FLOODING WILL INCREASE.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

A FLASH FLOOD WATCH MEANS THAT CONDITIONS MAY DEVELOP THAT LEAD
TO FLASH FLOODING. FLASH FLOODING IS A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION.

YOU SHOULD MONITOR LATER FORECASTS AND BE PREPARED TO TAKE ACTION
SHOULD FLASH FLOOD WARNINGS BE ISSUED.
