...FLASH FLOOD WATCH REMAINS IN EFFECT FROM MONDAY AFTERNOON
THROUGH MONDAY EVENING...

The Flash Flood Watch continues for

* Portions of Delaware, northeastern Maryland, southern New
  Jersey, and southeastern Pennsylvania.

* Monday afternoon and evening.

* Heavy rainfall of 1 to 2 inches, with locally higher amounts of
  4 or more inches are possible. Showers and thunderstorms may
  become heavy at times during the afternoon and evening. This
  rain will be falling in areas where the soils are already
  saturated due to heavy rains in recent weeks.

* Torrential rain falling in a short period of time will result
  in rapidly rising water levels along streams and creeks and in
  areas of poor drainage. Significant roadway flooding is
  possible.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

A Flash Flood Watch means that conditions may develop that lead
to flash flooding. Flash flooding is a very dangerous situation.

You should monitor later forecasts and be prepared to take action
should Flash Flood Warnings be issued.

Basement flooding is possible due to heavy rain falling on soils
already saturated from previous storms. If your home has a
history of basement flooding, monitor your sump pump for proper
operation and if possible, direct outside water flow away from
your house
