* WHAT...Flooding caused by excessive rainfall is possible. * WHERE...Portions of north central, northeast, and northwest Georgia, including the following counties, in north central Georgia, Cherokee, Dawson, Fannin, Forsyth, Gilmer, Hall, Lumpkin, Pickens and Union. In northeast Georgia, Banks, Towns and White. In northwest Georgia, Bartow, Catoosa, Chattooga, Dade, Floyd, Gordon, Murray, Polk, Walker and Whitfield. * WHEN...From 8 PM EDT this evening through late Friday 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... - Repeated rounds of rainfall along a stalled frontal boundary are likely through late week. An anomalously moist environment over Georgia will support high rain rates and increased chances for flash flooding. Widespread rainfall of 2 to 4 inches will be possible with locally higher amounts of 5 inches or more. Urban areas, and areas with poor drainage, will be the most susceptible to flash flooding. - http://www.weather.gov/safety/flood
