- Widespread rain with embedded thunderstorms will continue across the mountains and foothills today into tonight with rainfall amounts up to 4 inches in the southerly upslope areas. Some locations could receive up to 6 inches of rain.
Rainfall amounts of 2 to 3 inches have already fallen from Clayton Georgia to Lake Toxaway North Carolina. Lesser amounts are expected along the Tennessee border. Although it had been relatively dry this month, rainfall over the last several days has increased the soil moisture and raised the threat for enough runoff to lead to flash flooding in the Watch area.
