The food watch means that conditions will be present that could trigger flooding. You should be prepared to take quick action if a flash flood warning is issued or flooding occurs in your area.
Flood prone roads and other low-lying areas may be closed because of elevated runoff and overflowing streams. Urban areas may also get more significant flooding due to rapid runoff.
