Got this on the Weather Alert:
Flash flood watch until midnight CDT tonight
* Average total rain amounts of two inches will be possible through this evening...with isolated amounts up to four inches possible.
Precautionary/preparedness actions...
A flash flood watch means that conditions may develop that lead to flash flooding.
You should monitor later forecasts and be prepared to take action should flash flood warnings be issued.
Last major flash flood we had here was around Christmas in 1986. Flood waters were twelve feet deep. Six inches more and there would have been water in my parents house. To get to me here it would have to be MUCH deeper, say about thirty feet and I just can't see that happening.
