...THE FLOOD WARNING REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL 500 AM EDT FOR URBAN
AREAS AND SMALL STREAMS IN NORTHERN CUMBERLAND...SOUTHEASTERN
SALEM...WESTERN ATLANTIC AND SOUTHEASTERN GLOUCESTER COUNTIES...

WHILE THE VERY HEAVY RAIN HAS ENDED...THERE MAY STILL BE SOME 
FLOODING NEAR SMALL STREAMS AND IN POOR DRAINAGE AREAS ALONG SOME OF 
THE AREA ROADS.  

NO LARGER STREAMS HAVE FLOODED. THE COHANSEY RIVER WAS STILL 
RISING.

THERE HAVE EARLIER REPORTS OF FLOODING NEAR NORMA.  

THIS WILL PROBABLY BE THE LAST STATEMENT ON THIS AREAL FLOOD 
WARNING. 

THE FLOOD WARNING MEANS THAT FLOODING IS IMMINENT OR HAS BEEN 
PREVIOUSLY REPORTED. STREAM RISES WILL BE SLOW AND FLASH FLOODING IS 
NOT EXPECTED. 

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

BE ESPECIALLY CAUTIOUS AT NIGHT WHEN IT IS HARDER TO RECOGNIZE THE 
DANGERS OF FLOODING. IF FLOODING IS OBSERVED MOVE 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.
