...SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WITH HEAVY RAIN...

A TROPICAL AIR MASS WILL REMAIN OVER EASTERN PENNSYLVANIA, NEW 
JERSEY, DELAWARE AND MARYLAND THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT.  SHOWERS AND 
SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS WILL CONTINUE TO AFFECT THE REGION UNTIL 
THAT TIME.  THE SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE ACCOMPANIED BY 
HEAVY RAIN.  SOME LOCATIONS COULD RECEIVE AN ADDITIONAL TWO TO FOUR 
INCHES OF RAIN DURING THE MID WEEK PERIOD.

THE HEAVY RAIN WILL CAUSE FLOODING IN AREAS OF POOR DRAINAGE AND 
PERHAPS ALONG SMALL STREAMS AND CREEKS.  IF YOU LIVE IN A LOCATION 
THAT IS PRONE TO FLOODING PAY CLOSE ATTENTION TO THE WEATHER DURING 
THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS.

THE HEAVY RAIN WILL CAUSE PONDING OF WATER ON ROADWAYS.  DO NOT 
DRIVE THROUGH FLOOD WATERS, THE WATER MAY BE DEEPER THAN YOU THINK 
IT IS.  IF YOU WILL BE OUT DRIVING, THE DOWNPOURS WILL REDUCE YOUR 
VISIBILITY.  BE SURE TO LEAVE PLENTY OF ROOM BETWEEN YOUR VEHICLE 
AND THE ONE AHEAD OF YOU.

THE TROPICAL AIR MASS IS FORECAST TO MOVE TO THE EAST OF OUR REGION 
ON THURSDAY.  WARMER AND SLIGHTLY DRIER AIR IS EXPECTED TO BUILD IN 
FROM THE WEST FOR LATE IN THE WEEK AND FOR THE COMING WEEKEND.
