...RAIN MAY CAUSE LOCALIZED FLOODING ON ROADS AND IN POOR DRAINAGE 
AREAS THURSDAY...

LOW PRESSURE SETTING UP OVER THE CENTRAL MID-ATLANTIC REGION TONIGHT 
AND CONTINUING INTO SATURDAY WILL CAUSE AN EXTENDED PERIOD OF 
UNSETTLED WEATHER THROUGH THE REST OF THE WEEK. RAIN OR DRIZZLE CAN 
BE EXPECTED ACROSS MOST OF THE REGION TONIGHT. THE PRECIPITATION IS 
EXPECTED TO INTENSIFY THURSDAY AND JUST MIGHT BE HEAVY ENOUGH AT 
TIMES TO PRODUCE LOCALIZED PONDING OF WATER ON ROADS AND IN 
POOR DRAINAGE AREAS. RAIN AMOUNTS IN SCATTERED AREAS COULD RANGE 
BETWEEN ONE HALF AND ONE INCH THROUGH THURSDAY. IN ADDITION, SHOWERS 
ARE LIKELY THURSDAY NIGHT AND FRIDAY AS WELL.

MOTORISTS ARE REMINDED TO WATCH FOR DEGRADED TRAVEL CONDITIONS 
DURING PERIODS OF HEAVIER RAIN. SLOW DOWN AND LEAVE EXTRA TIME TO 
REACH YOUR DESTINATION. 

AS ALWAYS, THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE WILL MONITOR THIS SITUATION 
AND ADDITIONAL INFORMATION WILL BE ISSUED AS NEEDED.

STAY TUNED TO NOAA WEATHER RADIO OR OTHER LOCAL MEDIA FOR FURTHER 
UPDATES. THE LATEST WEATHER INFORMATION IS ALSO AVAILABLE ON THE 
INTERNET AT WWW.WEATHER.GOV/ER/PHI (IN LOWER CASE).
