Discussion
A trough system is affecting the island with overcast skies, heavy to intense showers, and thunderstorm activity. Due to the already saturated nature of the earth and possible rainfall accumulations of 1 and 2 inches, the BMS has extended the flash-flood warning.
General Information
A flash-flood warning is issued when rapid flooding due to heavy or excessive rainfall in a short period of time (generally less than 6 hours) is occurring or is imminent in the warning area.
This Flash Flood warning was extended at 6 pm Wednesday 18th September 2024 and will be updated/terminated at 8 pm today, Wednesday 18th September 2024.
