Areal Flood Warning
Statement as of 4:30 am EDT on September 7, 2008


The National Weather Service in Gray Maine has extended the

* Flood Warning for urban areas and small streams in...
Belknap County in central New Hampshire...
Strafford County in central New Hampshire...
Merrimack County in central New Hampshire...
York County in southwest Maine...
Rockingham County in southern New Hampshire...
southern Carroll County in northern New Hampshire...

* until 830 am EDT

* at 425 am EDT the significant rainfall had ended across New
Hampshire and extreme southwestern Maine. Rainfall should cease by
530 am. Creeks and small streams will begin to lower by around
daybreak... however... flooding is still possible from the rainfall
which has already occurred.

A Flood Warning means that flooding is imminent or has been reported.
Stream rises will be slow and flash flooding is not expected.
However... all interested parties should take necessary precautions
immediately.

Most flood deaths occur in automobiles. Never drive your vehicle into
areas where the water covers the roadway. Flood waters are usually
deeper than they appear. Just one foot of flowing water is powerful
enough to sweep vehicles off the Road. When encountering flooded
roads make the smart choice... turn around... dont drown.

Excessive runoff from heavy rainfall will cause flooding of small
creeks and streams... highways and underpasses. Additionally... country
roads and farmlands along the banks of creeks... streams and other low
lying areas are subject to flooding.

Do not drive your vehicle into areas where the water covers the
roadway. The water depth may be too great to allow your car to cross
safely. Move to higher ground.

Please report high water to the National Weather Service by calling
toll free... 1-877-633-6772... when you can do so safely.
