...SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS AND LOCALIZED HEAVY RAINFALL ARE
POSSIBLE THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING...

THE STORM PREDICTION CENTER HAS PLACED THE ENTIRE REGION INTO A
SLIGHT RISK FOR SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS THIS AFTERNOON INTO TONIGHT.

A WARM AND UNSTABLE AIRMASS WILL CONTINUE OVER THE REGION INTO
TONIGHT. A COLD FRONT OVER WESTERN PENNSYLVANIA THIS AFTERNOON
WILL HEAD EAST CROSSING THE MIDDLE ATLANTIC STATES AND MOVING
OFFSHORE BY EARLY FRIDAY MORNING. SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS WILL FORM
AS A RESULT OF TODAYS VERY WARM TEMPERATURES AND DUE TO THE
APPROACHING COLD FRONT. 

ALTHOUGH ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS COULD DEVELOP MOST ANYTIME THIS
AFTERNOON, THE MOST LIKELY TIME FOR THUNDERSTORMS TO DEVELOP IS
FROM 6 TO 10 PM THIS EVENING. THUNDERSTORMS WILL GENERALLY MOVE
FROM WEST TO EAST. AFTER MIDNIGHT, THOSE THUNDERSTORMS THAT
REMAIN WILL GRADUALLY DIMINISH.

ANY THUNDERSTORMS THAT DEVELOP COULD BECOME SEVERE AND CONTAIN
DAMAGING WINDS, HAIL, HEAVY RAINFALL AND CLOUD TO GROUND
LIGHTNING. DUE TO THE ALREADY SATURATED GROUND CONDITIONS, ANY
STRONG WINDS MAY CONTRIBUTE TO THE POSSIBILITY OF FALLING TREES
AND POWER LINES.

IF THUNDERSTORMS APPROACH, SEEK SHELTER IMMEDIATELY. ANYONE
INVOLVED WITH OUTDOOR ACTIVITIES INCLUDING SEARCH AND RESCUE FROM
THE ONGOING FLOODING SHOULD PAY PARTICULAR ATTENTION TO
APPROACHING THUNDERSTORMS. MANY TIMES, LIGHTNING OCCURS WELL AHEAD
OF THE ONSET OF A THUNDERSTORM.

ALTHOUGH HEAVY RAIN MAY ACCOMPANY ANY THUNDERSTORMS, WE DO NOT
EXPECT A REPEAT OF THE RAINFALL EVENT THAT OCCURRED OVER THE
WEEKEND. HOWEVER, RAINFALL AMOUNTS OF 1 TO 1 1/2 INCHES IN AN
HOURS TIME COULD CAUSE URBANIZED AREAS AND SOME OF THE SMALLER
STREAMS TO FLOOD.

STAY TUNED TO NOAA WEATHER RADIO ALL HAZARDS OR YOUR LOCAL MEDIA
OUTLETS FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION AND ANY POSSIBLE WARNINGS THAT
MAY BE ISSUED.
