...POTENTIAL FOR HEAVY RAIN OVER THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS...

HIGH PRESSURE ALONG THE EASTERN SEABOARD WILL REMAIN STATIONARY INTO
TUESDAY, MEANWHILE, A FRONT WILL APPROACH FROM THE WEST ON SUNDAY.
THE TWO SYSTEMS WILL ESTABLISH A SOUTH TO SOUTHEAST FLOW OF WARM AND
HUMID AIR INTO THE REGION. SHOWERS AND AT TIMES THUNDERSTORMS WILL
DEVELOP ALONG THIS CORRIDOR OF HUMID AIR, AND RAIN, HEAVY AT TIMES
IS LIKELY INTO MONDAY. 

CONDITIONS HAVE BEEN ON THE DRY SIDE FOR THE PAST MONTH, BUT THE RAIN
EXPECTED INTO LATE MONDAY COULD BRING THREE TO FOUR INCHES TO
SECTIONS OF NEW JERSEY, ESPECIALLY FOR THOSE COUNTIES BORDERING THE
OCEAN, AND SOUTHERN DELAWARE. 

THIS RAIN IS NOT ASSOCIATED WITH WHAT WILL BE THE REMNANTS OF
HURRICANE KATRINA. THE LATEST FORECAST FROM THE NATIONAL HURRICANE
CENTER HAS KATRINA MAKING LANDFALL IN THE NORTHERN GULF OF MEXICO
MONDAY. FROM THERE IT IS EXPECTED TO TRACK TO THE NORTHEAST. THE
FUTURE PATH ONCE INLAND WILL DETERMINE THE AMOUNT OF ADDITIONAL RAIN
WE CAN RECEIVE. 

IN THE MEANTIME, STAY TUNED FOR LATER FORECAST AND STATEMENTS ISSUED
BY THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE IN MT. HOLLY.
