...FLOOD WATCH IN EFFECT FROM THURSDAY AFTERNOON THROUGH LATE
SATURDAY NIGHT...

* WHAT...Flooding caused by excessive rainfall is possible.

* WHERE...All of southeast Missouri, southern Illinois, southwest
  Indiana, and western Kentucky.

* WHEN...From Thursday afternoon through late Saturday night.

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

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...
  - Repeat rounds of thunderstorms over the next several days will
    increase the threat for flooding. While 1 to 2 inches is forecast
    on average, the flooding threat is more from any storms that
    might sit or repeat over the same areas...where 2 to 3 times that
    average amount may be enhanced locally, leading to flood issues.
