...FLOOD WATCH REMAINS IN EFFECT THROUGH SUNDAY EVENING... THE FLOOD WATCH CONTINUES FOR * PORTIONS OF EAST CENTRAL GEORGIA...NORTH CENTRAL GEORGIA... NORTHEAST GEORGIA...NORTHWEST GEORGIA AND WEST CENTRAL GEORGIA. * THROUGH SUNDAY EVENING * A PERSISTENT UPPER LEVEL TROUGH OVER THE LOWER MISSISSIPPI VALLEY WILL CONTINUE TO BRING ABUNDANT MOISTURE TO NORTH AND CENTRAL GEORGIA THROUGH SUNDAY. * ADDITIONAL RAINFALL TOTALS OF 2 TO 4 INCHES APPEAR LIKELY THROUGH SUNDAY EVENING WITH LOCALLY HIGHER AMOUNTS POSSIBLE. THESE AMOUNTS...COMBINED WITH THE HEAVY RAIN THAT HAS ALREADY FALLEN... WILL LIKELY BE SUFFICIENT TO PRODUCE FLOODING IN THE WATCH AREA. LOCALIZED FLASH FLOODING CANNOT BE RULED OUT IN INDIVIDUAL STORMS...HOWEVER...AFTER SEVERAL DAYS OF PERSISTENT RAINFALL THE MAIN THREAT WILL BE MORE WIDESPREAD FLOODING OF CREEKS...RIVERS AND LOW-LYING AREAS. PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS... A FLASH FLOOD WATCH MEANS THAT CONDITIONS MAY DEVELOP THAT LEAD TO FLASH FLOODING. FLASH FLOODING IS A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION. YOU SHOULD MONITOR LATER FORECASTS AND BE PREPARED TO TAKE ACTION SHOULD FLASH FLOOD WARNINGS BE ISSUED. && MC
