“A Flash Flood Warning is issued by the National Weather Service when a flash flood is imminent or occurring. It indicates that dangerous flooding is happening or will happen soon, usually within 6 hours of heavy rain, a dam failure, or an ice jam. Flash floods are sudden, violent floods that can develop in minutes. The warning is a call to action, urging people to move to higher ground immediately, according to the National National Weather Service.”

Btw lots of rain and wind might effect his man wig/comb over.

I predict he calls it off.
