* WHEN...
Until 1215 AM EDT.

* IMPACTS...
Nuisance flooding of low-lying areas adjacent to streams and other poor-drainage areas, including farmland, parks, greenways, boat-access areas, golf courses, and parking lots.
Isolated, shallow flows over roadways is possible. A few flood-prone, low-water crossings may be impassible.

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...
- At 928 PM EDT, Heavy rainfall has ended across Cabarrus County.
However, storm-total rainfall of 2.5-4.5" occurred within a 2- to 3-hour period over the southeastern portion of the county from Georgeville to Midland, resulting in Minor flash flooding of small streams impacting adjacent low-lying areas including farmland, woodlands, and isolated residential yards and roadways.
Earlier this evening, Cabarrus County Emergency Management reported the flash flooding of a few roadways including: * Clydesdale Dr near Saddlebrook Dr and Mustang Dr * NC 27/24 near Riceland Way * Bethel Church Rd near Horton Branch and Robert Bost Rd * Reed Mine Rd near Little Meadow Creek and Hartsell Rd While the more significant flash flooding has ended, elevated streamflows continue and areas of adjacent lowland nuisance flooding are ongoing. Therefore, a Flood Advisory will remain in effect through approximately 10:30-11:00p to allow streams and remnant flooded areas to recede.
Please continue obey all barricades, even if flood waters have receded, in order to allow time for crews to assess road/bridge stability following damaging stream flows.
Additional heavy rainfall from strong thunderstorms is possible later tonight. Given saturated soils and swollen streams, any additional heavy rainfall may cause new areas of flooding to develop. Please stay weather aware and have multiple ways to receive warnings, including via television, cellular phone, and NOAA Weather Radio.
