Discussion
Pockets of surface to low-level convergence aided by a marginally favourable upper-level pattern could trigger 1 to 2 inches of rainfall this afternoon. Due to the already saturated nature of the earth, the BMS has issued a flash-flood watch.
General Information
A flash-flood watch is issued when heavy or excessive rainfall in a short period of time (generally less than 6 hours) could result in flash flooding within the watch area. It does not mean that flooding will occur, but it is possible.
This Flash Flood Watch was issued at 1pm Saturday, September 14th 2024 and will be terminated at 6pm or sooner if conditions warrant.
