Friday Evening Update

Very heavy rain is moving across the Stateline this evening. Embedded thunderstorms are also moving through with lightning causing issues for any football games being played this evening. A FLASH FLOOD WARNING has been issued for DeKalb County due to the extremely heavy rain that has already fallen there. It would not surprise me to see some more of these warnings come out through the evening into tonight.

The rain will come to an end near midnight and shortly thereafter from west to east. I expect anywhere from 1-3" of rainfall with this system, which, in tandem with the rainfall from yesterday, will cause flooding concerns for several regions tonight. Remember: turn around, don't drown. It only takes a foot of running water to sweep away a car. Therefore, do NOT drive into a water-covered roadway because you cannot tell how deep the water is, or how fast the water may be flowing.

We will dry out overnight and see temperatures drop through the 60's into the upper-50's by Saturday morning.
