- EXTREME RAINFALL FLOODING MAY PROMPT NUMEROUS EVACUATIONS
AND RESCUES.
- RIVERS AND TRIBUTARIES MAY OVERWHELMINGLY OVERFLOW THEIR
BANKS IN MANY PLACES WITH DEEP MOVING WATER. SMALL STREAMS,
CREEKS, CANALS, AND DITCHES MAY BECOME RAGING RIVERS. FLOOD
CONTROL SYSTEMS AND BARRIERS MAY BECOME STRESSED.

ARRIVES.
- ACT: LISTEN FOR TORNADO WATCHES AND WARNINGS. IF A TORNADO
WARNING IS ISSUED, BE READY TO SHELTER QUICKLY.
- POTENTIAL IMPACTS: SIGNIFICANT
- THE OCCURRENCE OF SCATTERED TORNADOES CAN HINDER THE
