(KLZA)--The Flood Watch continues through late Friday night for portions of southeast Nebraska, and southwest Iowa, including the southeast Nebraska counties of Richardson, Nemaha, Pawnee, Johnson, Gage and Otoe and stretching west and north to include Jefferson, Saline, Lancaster and Seward counties.
  
Through late Friday night numerous additional rounds of showers and thunderstorms with heavy rainfall potential are expected. 

Storm total rainfall could range 2.5 to 5 inches, which may
result in flooding of low lying areas, urban areas, and
eventually some rivers and streams.

A Flood Watch means there is a potential for flooding based on
current forecasts.

Those living in areas prone to flooding should be
prepared to take action should flooding develop.

Thunderstorms will continue Friday evening and taper off by
daybreak Saturday. Additional heavy rainfall could occur with
these storms, along with a threat for strong storms into the
evening.
