* WHAT...Flash flooding caused by excessive rainfall is possible.

* WHERE...A portion of central Pennsylvania, including the following
counties, Adams, Cumberland, Dauphin, Franklin, Lancaster, Lebanon
and York.

* WHEN...From 2 PM EDT this afternoon through this evening.

* IMPACTS...Area creeks and streams are running high and could flood
with more heavy rain.

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...
- Heavy rain fell over most of the watch area on Monday and
Monday night. More thunderstorms are expected later today and
early tonight. The wet soils will cause the rain to run off
into the already-high streams and creeks. Less than one inch
of additional rainfall later today may be enough to cause
flash flooding. The greatest risk for flooding is south of
the Turnpike.
