* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...
- Widespread thunderstorms will develop across the area
tomorrow afternoon, with the presence of a warm frontal
boundary and abundant moisture providing favorable conditions
for heavy rainfall. The flood threat will be further
exacerbated by well-saturated soils still present across
portions of the region due to significant antecdeant
rainfall. In general, 2-4" of new rainfall can be expected
for areas north of the I-10 corridor through Thursday
evening. Isolated locally higher totals of around 6" are
possible as well. This may result in street flooding, as well
as rises along area rivers and creeks.
