    This Flood Watch is based on observed and predicted rainfall over
    the next 24 hours.
    At this time there is limited confidence associated with rainfall
    amounts and the location of predicted rainfall.
    If rainfall in the basin is less than predicted, the forecast river
    stage may not be reached. Conversely, if rainfall is more than
    predicted the river may crest higher.
    As the forecast becomes more certain, this watch will either be
    upgraded to a warning or cancelled.
    The Flood Watch continues for
    The Pecatonica River at Freeport
