...THE FLOOD WARNING REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL 500 PM EDT FOR
GLOUCESTER AND WESTERN CAMDEN COUNTIES...

AT 410 PM EDT THE COOPER RIVER IN HADDONFIELD WAS STILL IN FLOOD AT 
BUT WAS RECEDING AND SHOULD BE WITHIN ITS BANKS BY 5 PM.  

BANDS OF HEAVY SHOWERS AND EMBEDDED THUNDERSTORMS WILL REDEVELOP IN 
CAMDEN AND GLOUCESTER COUNTIES OF SOUTHWEST NEW JERSEY BETWEEN 530 
PM AND 730 PM AND MAY TRIGGER NEW FLOOD ADVISORIES OR WARNINGS. 

 
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...

MOST FLOOD DEATHS OCCUR IN AUTOMOBILES. NEVER DRIVE YOUR VEHICLE INTO
AREAS WHERE THE WATER COVERS THE ROADWAY. FLOOD WATERS ARE USUALLY
DEEPER THAN THEY APPEAR. JUST ONE FOOT OF FLOWING WATER IS POWERFUL
ENOUGH TO SWEEP VEHICLES OFF THE ROAD. WHEN ENCOUNTERING FLOODED
ROADS MAKE THE SMART CHOICE...TURN AROUND...DONT DROWN.

EXCESSIVE RUNOFF FROM HEAVY RAINFALL WILL CAUSE ELEVATED LEVELS ON
SMALL CREEKS AND STREAMS...AND PONDING OF WATER ON COUNTRY ROADS AND
FARMLAND ALONG THE BANKS OF CREEKS AND STREAMS.
