  SOUTHEASTERN GLOUCESTER COUNTY IN SOUTHERN NEW JERSEY...

* AT 630 PM EDT...NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE DOPPLER RADAR SHOWED 
HEAVY RAIN ACROSS PORTIONS OF THE ADVISED AREA. THE RAIN WAS  
ASSOCIATED WITH THUNDERSTORMS. UP TO TWO INCHES OF RAIN COULD FALL 
FROM THE STRONGEST THUNDERSTORMS OVER THE NEXT FEW HOURS.

THIS WILL BE ENOUGH PRECIPITATION TO CAUSE LOW LYING AND POOR 
DRAINAGE FLOODING AND WILL AFFECT THE LATTER HALF OF THE EVENING 
COMMUTE.  

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.

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.
