Places like Kingman, Prescott, Sedona, and Payson are included in the Flood Watch.
Current National Weather Service forecasts are calling for moderate flooding along the Wet Beaver Creek near Rimrock and on the Oak Creek near Cornville.
Sedona could also see minor flooding along Oak Creek.
Minor flooding is also possible along the Verde River near Clarkdale and the Little Colorado River in and around Winslow.
Parts of the high country could see up to two inches of rain as this storm moves through.
The rain will also speed up snow melt in some of the higher elevations, which could add to the flooding in these areas.
