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

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...
- At 822 PM EDT, Doppler radar and automated rain gauges indicate heavy rain in ongoing between near Central due to multiple slow-moving thunderstorms. A rain gauge near Pisgah Ridge Cir has reported 3.5 inches of rainfall over the past 60-75 minutes. Rainfall rates are decreasing; however, this heaviest rainfall was enough to produce excessive runoff into area streams, primarily Outz Creek, Buck Creek, and Snow Creek, as well as adjacent feeder streams and drainages.
Significant rises on these streams is beginning and will likely continue over the next 30-90 minutes. Bankfull conditions are likely, with areas of nuisance flooding developing.
Areas of greatest concern include: 1) Along Outz Creek near Laurel Creek Rd and Pisgah Ridge Cir 2) Snow Creek near Bowles Farm Rd, Fox Bottoms Rd, and Eagles Nest Ln 3) Buck Branch near Cattlemans Rd 4) Snow Creek near Bailey Farm Rd.
- Significant additional rainfall is not expected. However, routed flow resulting from the heavy rain upstream may impact downstream areas of Snow Creek, generally near and east of NC 115, including Bailey Farm Rd. It may take another 60-90 minutes for high flows to reach these areas. Do not become complacent and stay stream aware through 10pm.
