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

* WHAT...Flooding caused by excessive rainfall continues to be
  possible.

* WHERE...Portions of southeast Alabama, including the following
  areas, Coffee, Dale, Geneva, Henry and Houston, Panhandle Florida,
  including the following areas, Holmes, Jackson and North Walton,
  and southwest Georgia, including the following areas, Baker,
  Calhoun, Clay, Dougherty, Early, Lee, Miller, Mitchell, Quitman,
  Randolph, Seminole and Terrell.

* WHEN...Through this evening.

* IMPACTS...Excessive runoff may result in flooding of rivers,
  creeks, streams, and other low-lying and flood-prone locations.
  Flooding may occur in poor drainage and urban areas. Low-water
  crossings may be flooded. Extensive street flooding and flooding
  of creeks and rivers are possible. Area creeks and streams are
  running high and could flood with more heavy rain.

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...
  - Additional rounds of showers and thunderstorms will develop
    across the area this afternoon. Widespread rain totals will
    generally be around 1 to 2 inches but localized areas in the
    flood watch region could see 2 to 4 inches of new rainfall.
    Some of these rainfall amounts could occur across areas that
    already received heavier rains on Friday, this increasing the
    concerns for localized flooding and/or flash flooding.
