...FLOOD WATCH REMAINS IN EFFECT FROM THURSDAY MORNING THROUGH
FRIDAY AFTERNOON...

The Flood Watch continues for

* The New Jersey counties of Sussex, Warren, Morris, Hunterdon,
  Somerset, Mercer, Middlesex, and Monmouth.

* From Thursday morning through Friday afternoon.

* Rain is forecast to overspread central and northern New Jersey
  on Thursday. The rain is expected to be moderate to heavy
  during the late morning and afternoon.

* Rainfall totals of one to two inches with isolated three inch
  amounts are expected. This will be the third rainfall event in
  the last week. The ground remains wet, and rivers and streams
  continue to run high.

* The moderate to heavy rain will likely result in some roadway
  flooding along with flooding in areas of poor drainage on
  Thursday. Some small streams and creeks may leave their banks
  Thursday afternoon into Thursday night. Minor to moderate flooding
  could then occur along a number of larger rivers late Thursday
  night into Friday. The river flooding could persist through the
  weekend.

* Please refer to AHPS for the latest. Confidence is higher that a
  number of forecast points will hit their Flood Stage, but with
  rainfall about 36 hours away, confidence is lower regarding any
  moderate flooding that is forecast.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

A Flood Watch means there is a potential for flooding based on
current forecasts.

You should monitor later forecasts and be alert for possible
Flood Warnings. If you live in an area prone to flooding, be
prepared to take action should flooding develop.
