Accomack County/Virginia and surrounding areas
FROM NOON EDT TODAY THROUGH THIS EVENING * SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL BECOME WIDESPREAD ACROSS THE AREA THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING.
LOCALLY HEAVY DOWNPOURS ARE EXPECTED DUE TO THE WARM AND HUMID AIR MASS. RAINFALL AMOUNTS OF 1 TO 2 INCHES ARE LIKELY WITH LOCALLY HIGHER AMOUNTS OF UP TO 3 INCHES IN ANY SLOW MOVING THUNDERSTORM.
THIS MUCH RAINFALL...IN COMBINATION WITH THE ALREADY SATURATED GROUND FROM TROPICAL STORM ANDREA MAY QUICKLY RESULT IN FLASH FLOODING
LATER TODAY.
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.
