Showers and thunderstorms will move across the region overnight into Wednesday morning bringing heavy rainfall and the threat for flash flooding.

**PSA**

7:34 PM • 6/2

As area creeks begin to flash, use extreme caution around roadways where water may cross.

Water levels can rise dramatically in a short amount of time, and moving water is often deeper and faster than it appears.

Turn Around, Don’t Drown.

Once conditions improve and you head out on the water, remember to wear a PFD and helmet, and always use the buddy system.

Stay safe,
