...THE FLASH FLOOD WARNING REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL 1245 PM CDT FOR
ROCK ISLAND...JO DAVIESS...WESTERN CARROLL...JACKSON...EASTERN
CEDAR...SCOTT...DUBUQUE...EASTERN JONES...EASTERN MUSCATINE AND
CLINTON COUNTIES...

At 733 AM CDT, Doppler radar indicated heavy rain across much of the 
warned area. Up to two inches of rain have already fallen. Flash 
flooding is expected to begin shortly.

Some locations that will experience flooding include...
Davenport, Dubuque, Moline, Rock Island, Bettendorf, Clinton,
Muscatine, East Moline, Maquoketa, Galena, Durant, Silvis, Eldridge,
DeWitt, Milan, Camanche, Asbury, Dyersville, Le Claire and Coal
Valley.

Additional rainfall amounts of 1 to 2 are possible in the warned 
area through the morning hours. With the saturated soil conditions, 
most of this rain will run off quickly and cause flash flooding 
along creeks and streams and rural roads. Flash flooding is also 
possible in urban areas.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

Excessive runoff from heavy rainfall will cause flooding of small 
creeks and streams, country roads, farmland, and other low lying 
spots.

Flooding is also possible in urban areas, highways, streets and 
underpasses, as well as other drainage areas and low lying spots.

In hilly terrain there are low water crossings which are potentially 
dangerous in heavy rain. Do not attempt to cross flooded roads. Find 
an alternate route.
