...FLASH FLOOD WATCH IN EFFECT FROM TUESDAY EVENING THROUGH FRIDAY 
MORNING...

The National Weather Service in Mobile has issued a

* Flash Flood Watch for Portions of southwest Alabama, including the 
  following areas, Baldwin Central, Baldwin Coastal, Baldwin Inland, 
  Choctaw, Clarke, Mobile Central, Mobile Coastal, Mobile Inland and 
  Washington. Portions of southeast Mississippi, including the 
  following areas, George, Greene, Perry, Stone and Wayne.

* From Tuesday evening through Friday morning.

* A multi-day heavy rainfall is about to unfold across our region. 
  The first wave will affect the watch area tomorrow night through 
  midday Wednesday with additional rounds of heavy rainfall 
  thereafter through late Thursday. After the lead wave of heavy 
  rainfall, it will be more difficult to pinpoint the exact location 
  of subsequent excessive rainfall areas. The counties under this 
  watch have relatively much higher chances of seeing that excessive 
  rainfall versus not. The northern portion of the watch area was 
  included due to the heavy rainfall and flash flooding that 
  occurred last week. While the southern portion of the watch area 
  did not receive as much, they are most in line to receive between 
  5 and 10" of rainfall from the first wave during the first 24 
  hours after onset. Local amounts may be higher.

* Excessively high rainfall rates will likely exceed one-, three and 
  six hour flash flood guidance across the watch area. This will 
  likely result in rapid rises in small creeks and streams, and in 
  particular, flash flooding over urban areas.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

You should monitor later forecasts and be prepared to take action 
should Flash Flood Warnings be issued.
