Saint Augustine, Florida

... The Flood Warning remains in effect until 545 am EDT for urban
areas and small streams in southern St. Johns and Flagler counties...

At 1203 am EDT... Weather Service Doppler radar continued to indicate
very heavy rainfall associated with tropical rainbands from Fay.
Based on radar estimates these rainbands have already produced
rainfall accumulations of 4 to 5 inches in parts of Flagler County
and 3 to 4 inches in St Johns County. Another 3 to 5 inches of rain
is possible through 545 am EDT Thursday morning. Emergency
management reported a rainfall amount of 5.75 inches in northwest
Palm Coast with rain still occurring. Additional rainfall will
worsen the situation.

Excessive runoff from heavy rainfall will cause flooding of small
creeks and streams... highways... streets and underpasses.
Additionally... country roads and farmlands along the banks of
creeks... streams and other low lying areas are subject to flooding.
Do not drive your vehicle into areas where the water covers the
roadway. The water depth may be too great to allow your car to cross
safely. To escape rising water move up to higher ground. Make the
smart choice... turn around... dont drown.

Flood waters may take days to recede.

To report flooding... have the nearest law enforcement agency relay
your report to the National Weather Service forecast office.

Stay tuned to NOAA Weather Radio... commercial radio or television
stations... or cable television for any updates. For additional
information... visit the National Weather Service in Jacksonville
website on the internet at weather.Gov/jax.

... Flood Watch remains in effect through Friday afternoon...

The Flood Watch continues for

* a portion of northeast Florida... including the following
areas... Alachua... Baker... Bradford... Clay... Columbia... Duval...
Flagler... Gilchrist... Hamilton... Marion... Nassau... Putnam... St
Johns... Suwannee and Union.

* Through Friday afternoon

* Tropical Storm Fay is over east central Florida and is forecast
to turn slowly northwest tonight and Thursday. As Fay moves
closer to the local forecast area through Thursday... rainfall
potential will increase as rain bands increase in coverage and
spread farther inland. As a result... a Flood Watch remains in
effect for all of northeast Florida.

* The highest rainfall amounts... both preceding and directly
associated with Fay... will favor eastern sections of the area.
Based on the current forecast track... eastern sections of
northeast Florida could receive 8 to 12 inches... with locally
higher amounts possible. Farther inland amounts may vary from 5
to 10 inches. If Fay slows even further... then higher amounts
can be expected.

The St. Marys River and Black Creek have flood warnings currently
in effect. The sante fe river at Fort White is a couple of feet
below action stage. Excessive rainfall accumulations will exacerbate
river flooding across the local area... and local interests near
these river basins should closely monitor river levels.

A Flood Watch means there is a potential for flooding based on
current forecasts.

You should monitor later forecasts and be alert for possible
flood warnings. Those living in areas prone to flooding should be
prepared to take action should flooding develop.
