Additionally, heavy rainfall will remain a concern through tonight, especially across the northwest half of the state. These areas could see an additional 2 to 5 inches of rainfall through tonight. Expect locations to experience flash flooding as well as the potential for likely river flooding as river basins continue to see more rainfall. .DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Saturday through Thursday Thunderstorms will remain likely on Saturday into Saturday night... with strong to severe weather potential remaining. All modes of severe weather will be possible Saturday afternoon and evening...including large hail...damaging winds...and a few tornadoes. The highest threat for severe weather on Saturday will be across the southeastern two-thirds of the area. Areas of heavy rainfall will continue on Saturday into Saturday night as well...with the threat for flash and river flooding continuing to remain a very significant hazard. Expect the threat for heavy rainfall and severe weather to exit the region by Sunday afternoon. Some areas could see temperatures dropping into the low and mid 30s Sunday and Monday mornings.
