...ADDITIONAL HEAVY RAIN TODAY INTO TONIGHT COULD CAUSE LOCALIZED 
FLOODING...

A LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM MOVING ACROSS THE SOUTHEAST ATLANTIC STATES 
TODAY WILL PASS OFF THE DELAWARE AND NEW JERSEY COASTS TONIGHT.
THIS LOW WILL TAP BOTH MOISTURE FROM THE DEEP SOUTH AND SOME OF
THE HIGH LEVEL MOISTURE FROM WHAT WAS ONCE PACIFIC HURRICANE JOHN. 
 
RAIN AMOUNTS COULD TOTAL BETWEEN 1 AND 2 INCHES WITH THIS SYSTEM. 
WITH THE PREVIOUS HEAVY RAIN FROM THE REMNANTS OF ERNESTO STILL 
RUNNING OFF AND THE SOILS WETTER THAN NORMAL, ISOLATED FLOODING FROM 
MODERATE TO LOCALLY HEAVY RAIN IS POSSIBLE. ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS 
ARE ALSO POSSIBLE WHICH WOULD ONLY ADD TO THE HEAVY RAIN AND POOR
DRAINAGE FLOODING POTENTIAL. PONDING OF WATER ON ROADS AND LOW
LYING AREAS WILL MAKE FOR A DIFFICULT COMMUTE ESPECIALLY LATER
TODAY AND THIS EVENING.

THE STEADY RAIN WILL END OVERNIGHT AS THE LOW MOVES INTO NEW 
ENGLAND. IN ADDITION, MINOR TIDAL FLOODING IS POSSIBLE AROUND THE 
TIMES OF HIGH TIDE EARLY THIS EVENING. RUNOFF FROM HEAVY RAIN IF IT 
COMBINES WITH THE HIGH TIDE COULD CAUSE AREAS OF FLOODING IN THE
MOST SUSCEPTIBLE REGIONS. COASTAL RESIDENTS SHOULD BE ALERT TO THE
POSSIBILITY OF MINOR TIDAL FLOODING LATER TODAY AND TONIGHT.
THE SAME HOLDS FOR ROADWAYS NEAR THE BAYS AND RIVERS THAT ARE PRONE
TO POOR DRAINAGE FLOODING WHEN THE HEAVY RAIN COINCIDES WITH THE
HIGH TIDE. HIGH TIDE ALONG THE OCEAN FRONT IS FROM ABOUT 6:00 PM TO
7:30 PM THIS EVENING. HIGH TIDES ALONG THE BAYS, BACK BAYS AND THE
DELAWARE RIVER ARE LATER THIS EVENING.

STAY TUNED TO NOAA WEATHER RADIO ALL HAZARDS, AS WELL AS YOUR LOCAL 
COMMERCIAL TELEVISION OR RADIO OUTLET, FOR MORE DETAILED INFORMATION 
AS THIS EVENT DEVELOPS.
