As of early Friday, a flood watch remains in effect for five states -- Alabama, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana and New York. Some of the flooding that's impacting the Midwest and the Northeast is due to the heavy rain on top of snow melt and ice jams.
There are also numerous flood warnings issued from Texas to Ohio due to rainfall over the past few days as well as snow melt and ice jams.
A new storm system is forecast to move out of the Rocky Mountains on Friday and combine with moisture in the Gulf of Mexico to produce more flash flooding from Texas to Alabama. The highest threat of floods will be from Lake Charles, Louisiana; to New Orleans; Jackson, Mississippi; and Mobile, Alabama.
