Like Monday, storms will take advantage of plentiful tropical moisture and produce rainfall rates of 1 to 2 inches per hour.

Heavy rains will now fall on saturated ground enhancing the flood threat later today. Don't drive through flooded roadways. Turn around don't drown.

Scattered storms are once again possible Wednesday before drying out to close out the work week.
