Latest Day One Severe Weather Outlook - they update this several times a day

Bottom line - Turn Around - Don't Drown. Life threatening weather is possible over the next four days. If people don't listen and pay attention then lives will be lost. I don't know how to be more clear about the subject. it isn't everyday that I say those words - you will hear them when I think a serious outbreak of severe storms or tornadoes is likely or a weather event that has the potential to be a higher impact than usual.
.
Flooding and flash flooding will be possible over the coming days. The National Weather Service encourages everyone to avoid flooded roadways. Report flooding to law enforcement and/or the National Weather Service. Our region experiences flash flood deaths almost every year. People think they can drive through flooded roadways and by the time they realize they can't - it is too late. Please don't be one of those people.

The Storm Prediction Center is forecasting an outbreak of severe thunderstorm and tornadoes across sections of the Ohio and Tennessee Valley. They have the highest risk area from west KY into Arkansas, Tennessee, and Mississippi. See graphics below.
We are concerned about the potential for more flooding and flash flooding - obviously. Turn around don't drown. Avoid flooded roadways - please do not risk your life by crossing roads with water over them.
