Have you seen them? - Heavy rain alerts active

Heavy downpours paint the WeatherRadar today and over the next few days in the eastern U.S. Flooding is likely, with two to four inches falling among locally higher amounts. Heavy rain alerts are active on the app!

If your notifications are switched on in your handy Weather & Radar app you may have received a 'heavy rain alert.' A large low-pressure system is sending rain and thunderstorms across the South and East these next few days, with flooding threats from Washington D.C. to Miami and westward to Little Rock, Ark.

Douglas, Ga., received a taste of this wet weather on Sunday afternoon as a gusty storm blew through, as seen in the video above.

An isolated severe weather threat is active, especially for the Southeast, but the flooding threats are much more widespread. Miami could see 2-inch-per-hour rain rates later this evening where a moderate risk for flooding has been issued. Northward, a slight risk for scattered flooding spreads into the Virginia Blue Ridge while a risk for isolated floods reaches into central Arkansas.

This low will move slowly east over the next couple of days, which is why many of you had a notification about rainfall within 48-hours. By Tuesday, the flooding threat focuses on the Ohio Valley and Mid-Atlantic. If you're not receiving these notifications, be sure to check your settings in the app!
