Additional details
- A near-record to record surge of monsoonal moisture combined with two merging storm systems will bring a prolonged multi- day period of showers and thunderstorms producing moderate to heavy rainfall. Combined with already rain soaked ground conditions, there is a high risk of flash flooding. - Low-lying, poorly drained areas, urban areas and arroyo systems, and burn scars will be most susceptible. Near rivers and streams will see rises, potentially reaching flood stage. - http://www.weather.gov/safety/flood
