Dickinson County in northwest Iowa
northeastern O'Brien County in northwest Iowa
northern Clay County in northwest Iowa
Osceola County in northwest Iowa
southeastern Nobles County in southwest Minnesota
southern Jackson County in southwest Minnesota

* until noon CDT Friday

* at 1158 PM CDT... National Weather Service Doppler radar estimates
and numerous reports of heavy rainfall from 2 to 4 inches across
the area this evening has resulted in ongoing ponding and flooding
of low lying areas. While thunderstorms have become more scattered
late evening... additional storms are expected to develop between
midnight and 2 am which will bring potential for locally an inch
or two rainfall the remainder of the night... which will prolong
the slow drainage effects from the heavy rainfall.

* Rainfall had created flooding of a Railroad underpass along Highway
59 and 60 in Worthington... with reported ponding across much of
Dickinson County.

Precautionary/preparedness actions...

Be especially cautious at night when it is harder to recognize the
dangers of flooding. If flash flooding is observed act quickly. Do
not enter the water. Turn around and move up to higher ground to
escape flood waters. Do not stay in areas subject to flooding when
water begins rising.
