...FLOOD WATCH REMAINS IN EFFECT THROUGH SUNDAY AFTERNOON...

* WHAT...Flash Flooding caused by excessive rainfall continues to be
possible.

* WHERE...Portions of Illinois, including the following areas,
Hancock, Henderson, Henry IL, McDonough, Mercer, Rock Island and
Warren, Iowa, including the following areas, Benton, Cedar,
Clinton, Des Moines, Henry IA, Iowa, Jefferson, Johnson, Jones,
Keokuk, Lee, Linn, Louisa, Muscatine, Scott, Van Buren and

* WHEN...Through Sunday afternoon.

* IMPACTS...Excessive runoff may result in flooding of rivers,
creeks, streams, and other low-lying and flood-prone locations.
Flooding may occur in poor drainage and urban areas. Extensive
street flooding and flooding of creeks and rivers are possible.

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...
- Thunderstorms are expected across the watch area today, and
again tonight into Sunday morning. Very high rainfall rates
of 2 inches or greater in a short time are possible, which
could lead to flash flooding particularly in urban areas. In
addition, with the potential for repeated rounds of storms,
some locations could receive 2 to 4 inches of rain with
locally higher amounts possible. With saturated soils from
previous rainfall, these rainfall rates and rainfall amounts
will lead to an increased risk for flash flooding.


PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

You should monitor later forecasts and be alert for possible Flood
Warnings. Those living in areas prone to flooding should be prepared
to take action should flooding develop.
