ARKANSAS THROUGH EARLY THIS AFTERNOON. LOCALLY HEAVY RAIN WILL
FALL ON GROUND THAT IS SATURATED IN MANY AREAS WITH FLASH
FLOODING POSSIBLE.
* DURING THE PAST TWO WEEKS TO ONE MONTH...WET WEATHER HAS BEEN
MOST FREQUENT ACROSS THE SOUTHERN COUNTIES. SOIL MOISTURE HAS
INCREASED...WITH THE GROUND LESS ABLE TO HOLD SIGNIFICANT
AMOUNTS OF WATER. ALSO...VEGETATION IS CONSUMING LESS GROUND
WATER AS IT GOES DORMANT. THESE FACTORS WILL INCREASE THE
LIKELIHOOD OF FLASH FLOODING.
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.
