Multiple rounds of heavy rain in coming days

Multiple rounds of heavy rain are expected over the next week and that could cause some flooding issues along creeks, rivers and low-lying areas.

The National Weather Service in Paducah expects four to six inches through next Sunday, with the heaviest rain to fall Tuesday night into Wednesday morning and Friday into Saturday.

Highest amounts of rainfall are expected to the west—specifically in southeast Missouri where six to eight inches of rain will be possible over the next seven days.

Forecasters say those with interests near area creeks and rivers should be sure to pay close attention to the latest forecasts in the coming days.
