The public is advised to stay away from streams, drainage ditches and low lying areas prone to flooding.
Rainfall and runoff will also cause hazardous driving conditions due to ponding, reduced visibility and poor braking action.
The NWS advises the public: “Do not cross fast flowing or rising water in your vehicle, or on foot. Turn around, don’t drown.”
