Areal Flood Watch
Statement as of 10:53 am EDT on August 20, 2008

... Flood Watch remains in effect through late Friday night...

The Flood Watch continues for

* a portion of southeast Georgia... including the following
areas... Appling... Atkinson... Bacon... Brantley... Charlton...
Clinch... coastal Camden... coastal Glynn... Coffee... Echols...
inland Camden... inland Glynn... Jeff Davis... Pierce... Ware and
Wayne.

* Through late Friday night

* Tropical Storm Fay is over east central Florida and is forecast
to turn northwest and slow. As Fay moves closer to the area through
today and Thursday... rainfall potential will increase as rain bands
spread north. As a result... a Flood Watch is in effect for southeast
Georgia.

* Highest rainfall amounts... both preceding and directly
associated with Fay... will favor eastern sections of the area.
Based on the current forecast track... rainfall totals of
around 5 to 10 inches are possible and farther inland amounts
may vary from 4 to 8 inches. If Fay slows even further... then
higher amounts can be expected.

A Flood Watch means there is a potential for flooding based on
current forecasts.

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.
