...FLOOD WATCH REMAINS IN EFFECT THROUGH SATURDAY AFTERNOON...

The Flood Watch continues for

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

* Through Saturday afternoon.

* Rain has fallen across southern New Jersey and the Delmarva for
  much of the day and this evening. Over three inches have fallen
  in spots today alone. This is on top of the rainfall that
  occurred the last few days. An additional 0.75 to 1.5 inches can
  be expected late tonight through Saturday afternoon with the
  heaviest amounts most likely falling over northern Delmarva and
  eastern Pennsylvania.

* With the heaviest rain falling across southern Delaware and the
  adjacent Maryland Eastern Shore on Friday, the threat of
  mainstem river flooding in New Jersey and southern Pennsylvania
  has diminished heading into the weekend. Low-lying and poor
  drainage can still be expected to develop through Saturday. The
  threat of flash flooding has lowered but is still a possibility
  on Saturday if thunderstorms develop.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

Continue to keep an eye on later forecasts. All of our hydrologic
forecasts can be accessed via our Advanced Hydrologic Prediction
Service website. While the threat of mainstem river flooding has
indeed diminished, it has not been completely eliminated.

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