strengthens as an extratropical low.
 
RAINFALL: Cristobal will produce storm total rainfall accumulations
of 2 to 4 inches with local amounts to 6 inches from Arkansas to
the western Great Lakes through Wednesday morning.  This rainfall
may produce flash flooding, and is forecast to produce new and

lower Missouri and mid to upper Mississippi Valleys. Smaller 
streams and rivers across southeast Louisiana, southern 
Mississippi, and eastern Arkansas have already begun to rise.
