Rain chances are expected to increase tonight and then persist through much of the week as a series of upper level disturbances impact the Mid-South. Several rounds of heavy rain will move across the region through Thursday. In addition, the residual snow and ice, as well as the near freezing ground temperatures will increase the amount of rain that runs off into the rivers and streams. Portions of the Mid-South, are forecast to receive 3-5 inches, with locally higher amounts possible. The highest rainfall amounts are expected over northeast Mississippi and this region has been placed in a moderate risk for excessive rainfall. The majority of the rest of the Mid-South is currently in a slight risk for excessive rainfall. Significant flash flooding, as well as urban and small stream flooding is expected. Also, current ensemble river guidance is suggesting widespread minor to isolated moderate river flooding. Stay tuned to updates and potential Watches and Warnings as this event gets closer, and prepare with your flood safety plan accordingly. $$ KRD
