1027 PM CDT MON OCT 13 2014

...FLASH FLOOD WATCH TONIGHT UNTIL TUESDAY AFTERNOON FOR ALL OF
MIDDLE TENNESSEE...

.PERIODS OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS OVER THE PAST SEVERAL DAYS
HAVE CAUSED THE GROUND TO BECOME NEARLY SATURATED FOR MANY LOCATIONS
IN MIDDLE TENNESSEE. ADDITONAL RAINFALL TONIGHT OF 2 TO 3 INCHES WITH
SOME LOCALLY HEAVIER AMOUNTS CAN BE EXPECTED. THIS HEAVY RAINFALL
IN A RELATIVELY SHORT PERIOD WILL LIKELY CAUSE SOME FLASH FLOODING.
THIS SITUATION IS OF PARTICULAR CONCERN BECAUSE WATER LEVELS MAY
RISE RAPIDLY...AND MUCH OF THE RAIN WILL FALL OVERNIGHT WHEN IT IS
DIFFICULT TO JUDGE THE DEPTH OF WATER. THE HEAVY RAIN IS EXPECTED
TO TAPER OFF ON TUESDAY.
