...FLOOD WATCH IN EFFECT FROM SATURDAY MORNING THROUGH SUNDAY

.A cold front will approach the mid state tonight and will stall
across the area on Saturday. A series of surface lows will move
northeastward along the boundary and add to the low level forcing
that is in place. The southwesterly mid and upper level flow will
provide a moisture rich airmass. With this combination of deep
moisture and vertical lift, copious rainfall amounts are expected
during the watch period.

* A deep southwesterly flow aloft will combine with a slow moving
  frontal boundary to produce heavy rainfall during the watch
  period. The rainfall on Saturday and Saturday night will be
  heavy at times. Rainfall amounts will average around 2 to 4
  inches, with areas along the Cumberland Plateau seeing the
  greatest amounts.

* Rainfall amounts of 2 to 4 inches will cause many rivers and
  streams to reach and potentially surpass flood stage levels.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

A Flood Watch means there is a potential for flooding based on
current forecasts.

You should monitor later forecasts and be alert for possible
Flood Warnings. Those living in areas prone to flooding should be
prepared to take action should flooding develop.
