An anomalously moist environment will persist over Georgia, resulting in high rain rates and increased chances for flash flooding. Convective rainfall (showers and thunderstorms) may repeatedly train over areas, and have locally high enough rainfall rates to induce flash flooding in urban areas and areas with poor drainage, as well as creeks and streams prone to flash flooding. - http://www.weather.gov/safety/flood
