* urban and small stream flood advisory for...
western Jefferson County in central Alabama...
Walker County in central Alabama...
this includes the cities of... Sumiton... Jasper... Dora... Cordova...
Carbon Hill...
Marion County in northwest Alabama...
this includes the cities of... Winfield... Hamilton...
Winston County in northwest Alabama...

* until 400 PM CST

* at 1156 am CST... showers and thunderstorms will continue to move
across the area in waves. This will produce rainfall across the
same area several times in the next few hours. These locations
have already received a few inches of rain in the past 24
hours... therefore some minor flooding is anticipated.

Do not drive your vehicle into areas where the water covers the
roadway. The water depth may be too great to allow your car to cross
safely. Move to higher ground.

A flood advisory means river or stream flows are elevated or ponding
of water in urban or other areas is occurring or is imminent. These
advisories may need to be upgraded later this afternoon... so monitor
these conditions as we proceed through the day.

508 am CST Tue Jan 6 2009

... Flash Flood Watch remains in effect through this afternoon...

The Flash Flood Watch continues for

* portions of central Alabama... east central Alabama... northeast
Alabama... northwest Alabama and west central Alabama...
including the following areas... in central Alabama... Blount...
Jefferson... St. Clair and Walker. In east central Alabama...
Calhoun. In northeast Alabama... Cherokee and Etowah. In
northwest Alabama... Marion and Winston. In west central
Alabama... Fayette... Lamar... Pickens and Tuscaloosa.

* Through this afternoon

* rainfall of 2 to 4 inches can be expected across the watch
area through 6 PM Tuesday.

* The heavy rainfall will cause area streams and creeks to
overflow their banks... cause water levels to rise in poor
drainage areas... and may lead to dangerous flooding conditions
on roads at low water crossings.

A Flash Flood Watch means that conditions may develop that lead
to flash flooding. Flash flooding is a very dangerous situation.

You should monitor later forecasts and be prepared to take action
should flash flood warnings be issued.
