It definitely seems like a setup where if you're in the right (or wrong) place, you could get trained over pretty good this afternoon and evening. I don't *think* it'll be anything like the training I saw in June 2006, but if the railroad tracks align it could be a hazardous afternoon for the usual standing water/flooding locations. Guessing at least 5 idiots will require water rescue from vehicles today. Will guess 3 pickup trucks and two minivans. 

There's no way we even come close to June 2006. Setup is vastly different.

Yep - completely - but just in the sense that narrow corridors could see a decent amount of training. I could see a localized spot get sig flooding this evening even as most areas get garden variety heavy rain and some isolated cases of standing water
