RALEIGH, N.C. (WNCN) — Following a flash flood warning Sunday night, the rain in the central region of North Carolina continues.

The National Weather Service issued a flood watch at 3:42 a.m. for Cumberland, Harnett, Hoke, Johnston, Sampson, Scotland, Wayne and Wilson counties.

The flood watch is in effect from 8 a.m. through Monday night at 10 p.m.

The NWS advises people to be on the lookout for excessive runoff resulting in flooding of rivers, creeks, streams and other low-lying and flood-prone locations.

The flood watch comes as soil continues to be saturated by persistent rainfall over the past several days due to tropical storm/depression Debby, combined with an additional possibility of 2-3 inches from rain Monday morning.
