...HEAVY RAIN MOVING THROUGH...

THE THREE HOUR RAINFALL RATE BASED ON THE DOPPLER RADAR IS UP TO
ONE AND A HALF INCHES IN MONROE AND CARBON COUNTIES. THIS AREA
CONTINUES TO MOVE EAST AND WILL BE SPREADING THE HEAVY RAIN ACROSS
THE REMAINDER OF THE REGION.

HIGHER ELEVATIONS OF SUSSEX AND WARREN COUNTIES CAN EXPECT AT
LEAST THAT AND POSSIBLY ANOTHER INCH AND A HALF. THIS WILL CAUSE
SOME STREET AND HIGHWAY FLOODING AND MAY EVEN CAUSE OF THE SMALLER
CREEKS AND STREAMS TO SHOW RISES. THE SHOWERS WILL LAST AT LEAST
ANOTHER TWO TO THREE HOURS BEFORE ENDING. 

IF YOU LIVE NEAR AN AREA THAT COULD FLOOD WITH THIS MUCH RAIN,
PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU MOVE YOUR CAR AND MONITOR ANY CREEKS OR
STREAMS NEARBY YOUR HOME. DO NOT DRIVE YOUR CAR THROUGH FLOOD WATERS.
