What: Flash flooding caused by excessive rainfall continues to be possible.
Where: Portions of north central, northeast, and northwest Georgia, including the following counties, in north central Georgia, Cherokee, Dawson, Fannin, Gilmer, Lumpkin, Pickens and Union. In northeast Georgia, Towns and White. In northwest Georgia, Bartow, Catoosa, Chattooga, Dade, Floyd, Gordon, Murray, Polk, Walker and Whitfield.
When: Through Saturday evening.
Impacts: Excessive runoff may result in flooding of rivers, creeks, streams, and other low-lying and flood-prone locations. Flooding may occur in poor drainage and urban areas.
Additional Details: - Multiple rounds of rainfall are expected to impact portions of north Georgia through the afternoon on Saturday, when a front will move through and end the threat. Widespread 2-4" of rain with locally higher amounts up to 6" possible. Convective rainfall (thunderstorms) will be possible overnight into the early morning ahead of the front, which may have locally high enough rainfall rates to induce flash flooding in poor drainage areas, as well as creeks and streams prone to flash flooding given the antecedent rainfall. Larger stem riverine flooding is not anticipated given the ongoing drought and low base state that these rivers are starting from. - http://www.weather.gov/safety/flood
