  • ...Excessive Rainfall Expected...
    .Moisture associated with the tropical remnant low pressure
    system will continue to move into the local area through Monday
    morning. The combination of the low pressure system and abundant
    moisture will cause a significant amount of rain to possibly fall
    across the area through Monday. The highest rainfall amounts
    will be focused southeast of a line from Mansfield to Warren. The
    potentially heavy rainfall could also cause rivers and streams to
    go out of their banks during this time period. Areas that
    experience very heavy rain in a short amount of time could see
    flash flooding develop mainly late this afternoon into this
    evening.
