* WHAT...Possible flash flooding caused by excessive rainfall.

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...
- A trough stalled over the western Hawaiian Islands today will
continue to draw up more moisture rich southern latitude
moisture across the islands of Kauai, Niihau and Oahu.
Antecedent rain of between over 1 to 4 inches Sunday has
saturated the ground and caused more swollen streams. Thus,
it will not take as much rain to exacerbate minor flooding
concerns today. Showers may become locally heavy at times
with the slight chance for an isolated thunderstorm.

You should monitor later forecasts and be prepared to take action
should Flash Flood Warnings be issued.
