Warnings and Notices

	Areal Flood Watch
Statement as of 7:55 AM CST on November 16, 2009 ... Flood Watch remains in effect through late tonight... The Flood Watch continues for * portions of Illinois and Missouri... including the following counties... in Illinois... Adams IL... Brown IL... Calhoun IL... Greene IL... Jersey IL... Macoupin IL and Pike IL. In Missouri... Knox... Lewis... Lincoln... Marion... Pike... Ralls and Shelby. * Through late tonight * periods of moderate to heavy rainfall will affect the region through tonight as a strong low pressure system moves into the Mississippi Valley. * Expect gradual rises up to and exceeding flood stage on area streams and rivers through the period. Localized heavy rain could cause smaller streams and creeks to respond more rapidly than larger rivers. Precautionary/preparedness actions... A Flood Watch means that flooding is possible but not imminent in the watch area. People in the watch area are urged to check on preparedness requirements... especially if you have interests along area rivers. Stay informed... and be ready for action if flooding is observed or if a Flood Warning is issued.
