Some localized heavy rainfall may impacts parts of flood-ravaged West Virginia on Monday, although extreme rainfall totals like we saw last week are not expected.
The National Weather Service (NWS) has issued a flash flood watch for central and southern West Virginia from 9 a.m. EDT to midnight on Monday.
Large amounts of rain are unexpected, but enough rain could fall to produce additional flash flooding across the areas that were impacted by the historic flooding last week. Additionally, remaining debris from that flooding could act as small dams with water pooling behind it.
