A little dab will do ya

Oh, a flash flood watch and warnings, Flood advisory, flood warning, flood watch,
all on one map. Well pardon me all over the place. I thought we might actually
go a week sometime without FIVE DIFFERENT FLOOD ADVISORIES! I also thought I'd
need a comb at this point in my life (dreamed about a brush, but that was more
of a delusion). That upper-level low that has kept us thinking we were going to
flood all week has finally arrived, and the rain is now coming down.

So this only adds to the rains over the last few days, and they have already
been substantial. And the ground is so saturated, it doesn't take much to cause
trouble.

Watch out for another 3-4 inches in areas where these slow moving storms just
continue to develop and remain almost stationary over unlucky areas. Doesn't show
up on the forecast map as much, but the state's gonna got buckshot areas of very
heavy rains.

Prepare for an interlude Saturday, more rain Sunday (hopefully not too much),
then April-like temperatures. Then, another shot of rain later next week.

Turn around, don't drown, be safe, be smart, remain weather aware. You know the
drill.
