A flash flood watch in effect from late Tuesday night through Wednesday evening, said the National Weather Service in Peachtree City.
The flash flood watch covers most of the metro area.
Heavy rain is expected to move into the area after midnight Wednesday morning and spread eastward through Wednesday night. Rainfall amounts of 2 to 4 inches are likely generally north of a line from La Grange to Macon to Louisville.
Several rivers and creeks remain in or near flood after the heavy rainfall on Monday. Soils are saturated over parts of north and central Georgia.
Additional heavy will quickly run off into creeks, rivers and streams resulting in rapid rises and potentially more significant flooding.
Localized areas -- especially across the mountains and parts of the Atlanta metropolitan area -- may experience flash flooding.

A rainy end to 2007 spared north Georgia from setting a new record for the driest year ever. Atlanta finally edged over the 1954 record breaking rainfall deficit on Sunday, but is still dealing with exceptional drought conditions. Click on video for more information. Julia Harding reports. SideBar
