Heavy Rainfall Expected Today with Potential Flooding
Today, residents can expect multiple rounds of showers and thunderstorms as a stalled front moves through the area. This weather pattern is anticipated to bring significant amounts of rainfall throughout the day.
The heaviest rainfall is predicted to occur from this morning into early this evening. While some showers and thunderstorms may persist tonight, they are expected to be less intense.
Total local rainfall amounts are projected to reach between 50 to 75 mm, with the possibility of even higher amounts in certain areas. Rainfall rates could be as high as 30 to 40 mm per hour.
A rainfall warning has been issued, indicating that heavy downpours could lead to flash floods and water accumulation on roads. Residents should be aware of the risk of localized flooding, particularly in low-lying areas.
Additionally, there is a potential for washouts near rivers, creeks, and culverts due to the anticipated heavy rains.
