  isolated rainfall totals of 3 to 6 inches are possible where
  storms track over the same locations.

* Torrential rain falling in a short period of time will result

  possible in isolated areas.

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.
