* WHAT...Flooding caused by excessive rainfall is possible. * WHERE...Portions of north central, northwest, and west central Georgia, including the following areas, in north central Georgia, Cherokee, Clayton, Cobb, Dawson, DeKalb, Douglas, Fannin, Fayette, Forsyth, Gilmer, Gwinnett, Henry, North Fulton, Pickens, Rockdale and South Fulton. In northwest Georgia, Bartow, Carroll, Catoosa, Chattooga, Dade, Floyd, Gordon, Haralson, Murray, Paulding, Polk, Walker and Whitfield. In west central Georgia, Coweta. * WHEN...From 8 AM EDT this morning through this evening. * IMPACTS...Excessive runoff may result in flooding of rivers, creeks, streams, and other low-lying and flood-prone locations. Flooding may occur in poor drainage and urban areas. * ADDITIONAL DETAILS... - Additional rounds of rainfall are expected to move across the area through the day today. An anomalously moist environment over Georgia will support high rain rates and increased chances for flash flooding. Convective rainfall (showers and thunderstorms) may repeatedly move over the same areas and have locally high enough rainfall rates to result in flash flooding particularly in urban areas and areas with poor drainage. Creeks and streams will also be susceptible to flash flooding. - http://www.weather.gov/safety/flood
