...A FLOOD WARNING REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL 345 AM EDT FOR BERKS...
SOUTHWESTERN MONTGOMERY AND NORTHEASTERN CHESTER COUNTIES...

At 1201 AM EDT, Doppler radar and automated rain gauges indicated an
area of very heavy rainfall across the warned area. Two to three
inches of rain have already fallen across much of the warned area,
but there are areas where up to four inches of rain has fallen.
Parts of these counties are also under a Flash Flood Warning.

Some locations that could experience flooding include...
Reading, Pottstown, Phoenixville, West Norriton, Wyomissing,
Birdsboro, Collegeville, Royersford, Hamburg, Fleetwood, Sinking
Spring, Laureldale, Trappe, Womelsdorf, Wernersville, Newmanstown,
Leesport, Schwenksville, Shoemakersville and Elverson.

The heaviest of the rain is beginning to move south of the warned
area, but an additional one-half to one of rain will fall.

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.

Please report flooding to your local law enforcement agency when you
can do so safely.

A Flood Warning means that flooding is imminent or occurring. All
interested parties should take necessary precautions immediately.
