...FLOOD WATCH REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL 6 PM EDT THIS EVENING...

* WHAT...Flash flooding caused by excessive rainfall continues to be
  possible.

* WHERE...Portions of southeast Georgia, including the following
  areas, Coastal Bryan, Coastal Chatham, Coastal Liberty, Coastal
  McIntosh, Inland Bryan, Inland Chatham, Inland Liberty and Inland
  McIntosh and southeast South Carolina, including the following
  areas, Beaufort, Charleston, Coastal Colleton and Coastal Jasper.

* WHEN...Until 6 PM EDT 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. Extensive
  street flooding and flooding of creeks and rivers are possible.

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...
  - Additional bands of showers and thunderstorms will impact the
    coast of Southeast South Carolina and Southeast Georgia
    today. Much of this area has observed significant rainfall
    over the past several days. With saturated soil conditions in
    place, it will not take too much additional heavy rainfall to
    produce urban flooding and flash flooding, especially in the
    more urbanized areas around Charleston, Beaufort, Savannah
    and Hinesville. Localized rainfall amounts in excess of 4
    inches can be expected through late afternoon.
