...THE FLOOD ADVISORY REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL 115 AM EDT FOR BERKS

At 1120 PM EDT, trained weather spotters reported minor flooding in
portions of Berks County from heavy rain that occurred earlier in
the evening. Though storms have moved out of the advisory area,
runoff will continue to pose problems for the next couple of hours
in urban and poor drainage areas.

Some locations that could experience flooding include...
Reading, Pottstown, Wyomissing, Birdsboro, Kutztown, Hamburg,
Fleetwood, Sinking Spring, Laureldale, East Greenville, Womelsdorf,
Wernersville, Newmanstown, Topton, Leesport, Adamstown,
Shoemakersville, Bally, Bernville and Bechtelsville.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

Turn around, don't drown when encountering flooded roads. Most flood
deaths occur in vehicles.

Be especially cautious at night when it is harder to recognize the
dangers of flooding.
