Significant Flooding Potential Continues Into Thursday With Several More Inches Of Rain Expected
September 15, 2021
A flash flood watch is in effect for the entire area as a significant heavy rain event is unfolding, according to the National Weather Service.
That is leading to considerable flooding in the southern portion of Escambia County and the other red shaded areas on the map above.
Heavy rain continues to stream into the area this evening from the remnants of Nicholas. Expect more bands of heavy rain tonight and Thursday
The weather service said this is turning into a long-duration flood event that persists into the weekend. The overall coverage of heavy rain will be less on Thursday, but we’ve already seen rainfall totals greater than 10 inches today in southern Escambia County, so any additional rain will exacerbate saturated ground. We expect another 3-6 inches of rain with locally higher totals through the weekend, especially near the coast. The weather service is becoming increasingly concerned about another round of heavy rain on Friday potentially through the weekend.
