Forecasters said the creeks, streams, and areas with poor drainage face the largest flash flooding risk Thursday afternoon through Friday morning.

“Much of this rainfall may occur in a short period of time, leading to the threat of flash flooding,” forecasters said.

There’s a chance that severe weather that can produce damaging winds and even tornadoes could develop from midday Thursday through nighttime, according to forecasters.
