Following a very brief lull, a band of rain sets up again this evening and lasts through the night. Some of the rain could be heavy near and south of I-70. This is also an area where rain is expected to move over the same spots for several hours. That's why the National Weather Service has issued a Flood Watch 7pm this evening through Wednesday morning. If you come across a flooded road, find another way around.

In the heaviest band, more than 2" of rain is possible. Even with our previously dry conditions, some flooding is possible.
