FLASH FLOOD RISK VERY HIGH TODAY.

Currently the atmosphere is juiced up with a lot of moisture, and currently we're seeing some spots where the downpours just won't let up, 1-2" per hour rates occurring or might occur very shortly in the circled areas. The main line should slowly move east and exit out of here by sunset or right before. But scattered showers and downpours should occur throughout the night into Friday morning.
