Scattered to numerous showers and thunderstorms are likely especially between 9am and 3pm today. Some isolated to widely scattered activity is possible both before and after that time period.
Locally heavy rainfall is likely at times with any thunderstorms, especially between 9am and 3pm today. At the present time it appears that rainfall amounts of 2-3 inches are likely for most of the local area with this event, with locally higher amounts of 3-4 inches (or more) possible in any parts of the area that receive any concentrated thunderstorm activity.
The primary local concern with this activity will be the possibility of flooding of low lying and poor drainage areas (i.e., low water crossings and the like) during any periods of heavy rainfall mainly between 9am and 3pm today. Depending on the extent of heavy rainfall during that time, issues with especially low water crossings may linger into the late afternoon or early evening hours in at least some parts of the local area.
An isolated stronger thunderstorm could produce strong, gusty winds and/or hail mainly during the morning hours today (i.e., mainly between 9am and 12 Noon), but the primary local concerns will be the potential for flooding of low water crossings and similar areas, as noted above.
We will continue monitoring the situation and issue updates as conditions warrant.
