...THUNDERSTORM IMPACT...
WIDELY SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED TO BECOME MORE
NUMEROUS THIS EVENING AND OVERNIGHT...ESPECIALLY NEAR THE COAST. A
FEW OF THESE STORMS MAY BE STRONG. THE MAIN THREATS WITH ANY
STORMS WILL BE HEAVY RAINFALL...FREQUENT LIGHTNING...AND A LOW
RISK OF ISOLATED TORNADOES.

...FLOOD IMPACT...
A FLOOD WATCH IS IN EFFECT FOR THE ENTIRE FORECAST AREA. SHOWERS
AND THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED TO BECOME MORE WIDESPREAD LATER
TODAY AND ESPECIALLY INTO THE OVERNIGHT HOURS TONIGHT. SOME OF THE
RAINFALL MAY BE LOCALLY HEAVY. THE MAIN THREAT FOR FLOODING
TONIGHT WILL BE OVER URBANIZED AREA...BUT THE THREAT MAY EXPAND TO
AREA RIVERS ON THURSDAY AS THE POTENTIAL FOR HEAVY RAINFALL
CONTINUES.

...WIND AND SEA IMPACT...
A SLOW INCREASE IN WINDS AND SEAS IS EXPECTED AS LOW PRESSURE

LOCALIZED HIGHER AMOUNTS. A FLOOD WATCH IS IN EFFECT FOR THE
ENTIRE FORECAST AREA.

...COASTAL FLOOD IMPACT...
