* Deep tropical moisture will move across the central Appalachains this afternoon through tonight, supporting the potential for prolonged periods of moderate to heavy rain. Rainfall amounts will be highest along the crest of the Blue Ridge into the eastern foothills, where the terrain will enhance rainfall intensity and amounts.

* Where high rainfall rates occur, or where bands of rain occur repeatedly over the same locations, rapid rises on smaller creeks and streams are expected. Some of these waterways may flood over their banks, and flow across roads and into low-lying areas.
Depending on where the heaviest rain occurs, minor flooding of the larger main-stem rivers may be possible.
