...THE FLOOD WARNING REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL 200 AM EDT FOR SMALL
STREAMS IN NORTHWESTERN SOMERSET...HUNTERDON...WESTERN MORRIS...
WARREN AND SOUTHERN SUSSEX COUNTIES...

AT 137 AM EDT A FEW SMALL STREAMS AND CREEKS IN NORTHERN NEW JERSEY 
REMAINED ABOVE FLOOD STAGE. THE WATER IN THESE BASINS WILL CONTINUE 
TO DECLINE OVER THE NEXT COUPLE OF HOURS. A FEW MORE SHOWERS AND 
POSSIBLY A THUNDERSTORM MAY MOVE THROUGH AND PRODUCE A BRIEF HEAVY 
DOWNPOUR. ANOTHER QUARTER INCH OF RAIN IS POSSIBLE WITH MINIMAL 
WATER LEVEL RISES.

A FLOOD WARNING MEANS THAT FLOODING IS IMMINENT OR HAS BEEN REPORTED.
STREAM RISES WILL BE SLOW AND FLASH FLOODING IS NOT EXPECTED.
HOWEVER...ALL INTERESTED PARTIES SHOULD TAKE NECESSARY PRECAUTIONS
IMMEDIATELY.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

BE ESPECIALLY CAUTIOUS AT NIGHT WHEN IT IS HARDER TO RECOGNIZE THE
DANGERS OF FLOODING. IF FLOODING IS OBSERVED ACT QUICKLY. MOVE UP TO
HIGHER GROUND TO ESCAPE FLOOD WATERS. DO NOT STAY IN AREAS SUBJECT TO
FLOODING WHEN WATER BEGINS RISING.

DO NOT DRIVE YOUR VEHICLE INTO AREAS WHERE THE WATER COVERS THE
ROADWAY. THE WATER DEPTH MAY BE TOO GREAT TO ALLOW YOUR CAR TO CROSS
SAFELY. MOVE TO HIGHER GROUND.
