Flooding may occur in poor drainage and urban areas. * ADDITIONAL DETAILS... - As the remnants of Post-Tropical Storm Arthur move north and east towards Central Louisiana overnight into early Thursday, rainfall associated with this decaying system could produce periods of excessive, heavy rainfall across portions of central Louisiana. The heaviest rainfall is forecast to remain just to the south and east of our Flood Watch area through early Thursday evening. However, rainfall amounts of 1 to 2 inches on still fairly wet soils may bring flooding of low lying and poor drainage areas. - Http://www.weather.gov/safety/flood You should monitor later forecasts and be alert for possible Flood Warnings. Those living in areas prone to flooding should be prepared to take action should flooding develop.
