* From late tonight through Friday evening
* Heavy rain associated with a coastal low is expected to start very late tonight and continue through the day on Friday. Widespread amounts of 1 to 2 inches are likely with local higher amounts possible.
PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...
A Flash Flood Watch means that there is the potential for flash flooding which can be life-threatening. Heavy rain is expected to occur over a short period of time. Rapidly rising flood waters may quickly inundate roadways and areas of poor drainage. Streams and creeks could leave their banks, flooding nearby properties.
