SEVERE WEATHER STATEMENT
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MOUNT HOLLY NJ
1205 PM EDT SAT AUG 30 2003

...THE STORM PREDICTION CENTER HAS PUT SOUTHEAST 
PENNSYLVANIA...SOUTHERN NEW JERSEY...DELAWARE AND NORTHEAST MARYLAND 
IN A SLIGHT RISK FOR SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS THIS AFTERNOON...
...THERE IS ALSO THE POTENTIAL FOR VERY HEAVY RAIN AND FREQUENT 
LIGHTNING...

A WALK OUTSIDE TODAY WILL CONVINCE ANYONE THAT IT IS INDEED VERY 
HUMID AND AS TEMPERATURES RISE INTO THE 80S TO NEAR 90 IT WILL FEEL
UNCOMFORTABLE. 

THE COMBINATION OF THE TROPICAL MOISTURE...SUNSHINE...AND AN APPROACHING
FRONT FROM THE NORTHWEST WILL CAUSE SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS TO 
DEVELOP. THE CONDITIONS THIS AFTERNOON SUPPORT LOCALIZED VERY 
HEAVY RAIN...POSSIBLY BETWEEN 2 TO 3 INCHES IN A SHORT PERIOD OF 
TIME. IN ADDITION TO THE RAIN...THERE WILL BE FREQUENT CLOUD TO 
GROUND LIGHTNING AND POSSIBLE STRONG WIND GUSTS.
