203 AGUS74 KWCO 011509 HMDNWC National Hydrologic Discussion - EXPERIMENTAL NWS National Water Center - Tuscaloosa AL 1009 AM CDT TUE OCT 1 2024 .Synopsis... Flooding impacts expected across American Samoa... Lingering river flooding across the Southeast... Potential rainfall late this week across the Central and Eastern Gulf Coast... .Discussion... .American Samoa... Flash flooding in low-lying/vulnerable areas and landslides/mudslides/rockslides remain possible through this evening (local time) as periods of heavy rainfall continue across the island. .Southeast... Across the Coastal Plain of GA and the Carolinas, areas of river flooding will continue through the end of the week as the runoff from Helene makes its way through the river systems. The Pee Dee and Santee rivers in SC, and the Ocmulgee, Ohoopee, Alapaha, and Withlacoochee rivers in GA will continue to rise over the next few days with crests expected by the end of the week at most locations. Significant rainfall is not expected over the next week, allowing water levels across the region to begin to recede. .Central and Eastern Gulf Coast... Several rounds of rainfall may be possible later this week in association with a potential tropical disturbance in the Gulf of Mexico. Confidence is very low on where any flooding impacts will be, if any, but interests along the Gulf Coast should continue to monitor the progress of this system. //JEC $$
