Instructions:

A Flash Flood Watch means that conditions may develop that lead to flash flooding. Flash flooding is a very dangerous situation. Be especially cautious at night, when rising flood waters may be harder to detect. And remember...never drive across a flooded roadway. Turn around, don't drown! You should monitor later forecasts and be prepared to take action should Flash Flood Warnings be issued.
