Rainfall rates may reach as high as 1 to 2 inches per hour within the heaviest and most persistent downpours. Despite recent dry conditions, such high rainfall rates in a short period of time can result in flash flooding, especially in urban and poor drainage areas and where heavy rain repeatedly impacts a given area. An additional 1 to 2 inches of rain is expected for most areas in the flood watch, with locally higher amounts possible. - http://www.weather.gov/safety/flood
