...FLOOD WATCH REMAINS IN EFFECT THROUGH LATE TONIGHT...

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

* WHERE...Portions of southeast Georgia, including the following
  areas, Bulloch, Candler, Coastal Bryan, Coastal Chatham, Coastal
  Liberty, Coastal McIntosh, Effingham, Evans, Inland Bryan, Inland
  Chatham, Inland Liberty, Inland McIntosh, Jenkins, Long, Screven
  and Tattnall and southeast South Carolina, including the following
  areas, Allendale, Beaufort, Charleston, Coastal Colleton, Coastal
  Jasper, Dorchester, Hampton, Inland Berkeley, Inland Colleton,
  Inland Jasper and Tidal Berkeley.

* WHEN...Through late tonight.

* IMPACTS...Excessive runoff may result in flooding of rivers,
  creeks, streams, and other low-lying and flood-prone locations.
  Creeks and streams may rise out of their banks. Flooding may occur
  in poor drainage and urban areas. Storm drains and ditches may
  become clogged with debris. Extensive street flooding and flooding
  of creeks and rivers are possible.

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...
  - Showers and thunderstorms produced numerous areas of 3 to 5
    inches, with localized areas receiving in excess of 7 inches,
    of rainfall on Friday across southeast Georgia and the South
    Carolina. An additional 1.5 to 2.5 inches of rainfall can be
    expected across the region through this evening. The heaviest
    rainfall should occur generally along and east of the
    Interstate 95 corridor, some areas possibly receiving in
    excess of 4 inches. The additional rainfall falling on nearly
    saturated soil will likely lead to rapid runoff, possibly
    producing flash flooding.

    Several streams and creeks have elevated water levels
    following the heavy rainfall that occurred on Friday. Based
    on the forecast rainfall, Church Creek near West Ashley,
    French Quarter Creek near Huger, and Ireland Creek at
    Walterboro could see water levels crest above flood stage. In
    addition, flash flooding may develop within coastal cities
    with any heavy downpours that coincide with high tide this
    morning or this evening.
  - http://www.weather.gov/safety/flood

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

Be prepared to protect life and property, especially in areas prone
to flooding. If flooding develops, move to higher ground
immediately. If driving, be prepared for flooded roadways and
possible road closures.
