Abundant moisture across the region will combine with a weak upper level storm system and rain from last night has saturated the ground, all of this will give us an enhanced risk of flash flooding today through early Wednesday morning. Any thunderstorms that develop today and tonight will be very efficient rain makers. Isolated rainfall amounts of 2 to 3 inches of rain will be possible which will lead to flash flooding.
