Severe storms threaten South, flash flood risks increase

As much of the South has been experiencing abnormally dry to drought conditions, an area of low pressure is forecast to drop a widespread 1–3 inches of rain from Friday through Sunday. While much-needed, the heavy rain will heighten flash flood risks across parts of the region, with portions of Arkansas at a Level 2 of 4 threat on Saturday.
