...FLOOD WATCH REMAINS IN EFFECT FROM MIDNIGHT EDT TONIGHT
THROUGH TUESDAY EVENING...

The Flood Watch continues for

* The New Jersey counties of Sussex, Warren, Morris, Hunterdon,
  Somerset, Mercer, Middlesex and Monmouth, and for the
  Pennsylvania counties of Carbon, Monroe and Northampton

* From midnight tonight through Tuesday evening.

* Rain is forecast to overspread eastern Pennsylvania and New
  Jersey this evening. The rain is expected to become moderate to
  heavy overnight into early Tuesday morning. Rainfall rates
  should diminish during the morning hours on Tuesday. However,
  there is a chance of scattered showers and thunderstorms from
  late Tuesday morning into Tuesday afternoon that could bring
  additional locally heavy rain. All precipitation should end by
  Tuesday evening.

* Rainfall totals of 1 to 1.5 inches are expected with locally
  higher amounts around 2 inches possible. The moderate to heavy
  rain is forecast to fall on areas that received generally 1 to 3
  inches of rain on Friday. The ground remains wet, and rivers
  and streams continue to run high.

* Another heavy rain event is anticipated from late Wednesday
  night into Thursday. Widespread rainfall amounts of 1 to 2
  inches are expected with locally higher amounts. It should not
  take much rainfall to result in new flooding at that time in
  light of the wet conditions leading up to the event. Minor
  flooding may even occur on the main stem rivers in the Passaic
  and Raritan River basins. Any flooding on the Passaic River
  could linger into the weekend.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

A Flood Watch means that there is the potential for flooding
based on the current forecast.

You should monitor the forecast and be alert for possible Flood
Warnings. If you live in an area that is prone to flooding, be
prepared to take action if flooding develops.
