Flood Warning until 10:00PM Friday

The National Weather Service has issued a Flood Warning for the Loosahatchie River and and the S.F. Forked Deer River.

Flood watches continue for the 101.5 FM listening area. At least one flood related death has already occurred as a result of this storm

The National Weather Service reports heavy rainfall is expected across much of the mid-south.

Rainfall amounts of 2 to 4 inches are possible, with localized higher amounts. Another round of heavy rainfall is expected Friday through Saturday night.

Forecasters say runoff from heavy rainfall may result in rapid rises in river, stream, and creek levels. Widespread lowland flooding is possible and poor drainage urban areas may experience street flooding.

Prepare to take action should flooding develop.
