including the following areas, Clark and Scotland.

* WHAT...Flooding caused by excessive runoff from widespread 
  rainfall continues to be possible.

* WHERE...Portions of Illinois, including the following areas, 
  Bureau, Henderson, Henry IL, Mercer, Putnam, Rock Island, Warren 
  and Whiteside and east central Iowa, including the following area, 
  Scott.

* WHEN...Until 3 PM CST this afternoon.

* IMPACTS...Excessive runoff may result in flooding of rivers, 
  creeks, streams, and other low-lying and flood-prone locations. 
  Creeks and streams may rise out of their banks. Flooding may occur 
  in poor drainage and urban areas.

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...
  - Light rain will gradually diminish early this afternoon. An
    axis of 1 to 2 inches of rainfall is expected within portions
    of the watch area. This amount of rain falling on frozen
    soils and on any creeks and streams with ice cover will
    increase the risk for significant runoff and flooding.
