Flood Watch

* WHAT...Flooding caused by excessive rainfall continues to be possible.

* WHERE...A portion of eastern North Carolina, including the following areas, Beaufort, Duplin, Greene, Inland Onslow, Jones, Lenoir, Northern Craven, Pamlico, Pitt and Southern Craven.

* WHEN...Through Saturday morning.

* IMPACTS...Excessive runoff may result in flooding of rivers, creeks, streams, and other low-lying and flood-prone locations. Flooding may occur in poor drainage and urban areas.

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS... - A stalled front will interact with an anomalously moist airmass, supporting areas of intense rainfall rates as high as 2-3"/hr. These rates will support a risk of flooding and flash flooding, especially in low-lying and poor drainage areas. Additional rainfall of 1-2" with locally higher amounts will be possible within the watch area. - http://www.weather.gov/safety/flood
