...THE FLOOD ADVISORY REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL 515 PM CDT FOR
SOUTHERN MAURY...SOUTHWESTERN MARSHALL AND NORTHERN GILES
COUNTIES...

AT 310 PM CDT...MOST OF THE TRAINING THUNDERSTORMS HAD MOVED OUT OF
THE ADVISORY AREA. HOWEVER DOPPLER RADAR RAINFALL ESTIMATES INDICATE
THAT UP TO AND AROUND THREE INCHES OF RAIN HAD FALLEN WEST OF
CORNERSVILLE IN FAR SOUTHWEST MARSHALL COUNTY.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

MOST FLOOD DEATHS OCCUR IN AUTOMOBILES. NEVER DRIVE YOUR VEHICLE INTO
AREAS WHERE THE WATER COVERS THE ROADWAY. FLOOD WATERS ARE USUALLY
DEEPER THAN THEY APPEAR. JUST ONE FOOT OF FLOWING WATER IS POWERFUL
ENOUGH TO SWEEP VEHICLES OFF THE ROAD. WHEN ENCOUNTERING FLOODED
ROADS MAKE THE SMART CHOICE...TURN AROUND...DONT DROWN.

TO REPORT FLOODING...HAVE THE NEAREST LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCY RELAY
YOUR REPORT TO THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE FORECAST OFFICE.
