Isolated amounts of 7 to 9 inches remains a possibility, especially in the vicinity of training and slow moving storms. While soils will be able to absorb most of this moisture, the higher rainfall rates, slow storm motion, and training can quickly lead to localized, urban flooding and in locations with poor drainage. - http://www.weather.gov/safety/flood
