...FLOOD WATCH REMAINS IN EFFECT THROUGH THIS EVENING...

* WHAT...Flash flooding caused by excessive rainfall continues to be
possible.

* WHERE...Portions of east central, northeast, south central, and

central Kentucky, Bath, Elliott, Estill, Fleming, Menifee,

* WHEN...Through this evening.

* IMPACTS...Excessive runoff may result in flooding of rivers,
creeks, streams, and other low-lying and flood-prone locations.

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...
- Excessive rains of the past week have left a good portion of
the area primed for high water issues in locations that
experience training thunderstorms through this evening.
Rounds of showers and thunderstorms, some with torrential
downpours, are expected to affect the area through the
evening, leading to a potential for flash flooding
considering the soaked grounds in certain parts of eastern
Kentucky. Confidence in any location experiencing flooding is
low, though, given the tough to predict nature of training
storms. As a result caution and awareness is urged through
this evening.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

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