...FLOOD WATCH IN EFFECT FROM TUESDAY AFTERNOON THROUGH WEDNESDAY
EVENING...

* WHAT...Flooding caused by excessive rainfall is possible.

* WHERE...The mid-Hudson Valley, eastern Catskills, Litchfield
  County, central and southern Taconics, and western Massachusetts.

* WHEN...From Tuesday afternoon through Wednesday evening.

* IMPACTS...Excessive runoff from heavy rainfall rates may flood
  low-lying, poor drainage, urban, and other flood-prone locations.
  Areas where heavy rainfall rates persist will especially be
  vulnerable to flash flooding.

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...
  - Periods of moderate to heavy rain and thunderstorms capable
    of heavy downpours arrive tomorrow afternoon from west to
    east continuing tomorrow night with rainfall rates exceeding
    1 to 2 inches per hour at times.

    Despite recent dry conditions, such high rainfall rates in a
    short period of time can result in flash flooding, especially
    in urban and poor drainage areas and where heavy rain
    repeatedly impacts a given area. Steady rain continues into
    Wednesday before transitioning to showers Wednesday night
    into Thursday. Three day rainfall totals likely range from 1
    to 3 inches with 3 to 6 inches in the eastern Catskills,
    Litchfield County and central and southern Taconics due to
    upslope enhancements.
