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

The Flood Watch continues for

* Portions of Delaware, northeast Maryland, southern New Jersey,
  and Pennsylvania, including the following areas, in Delaware,
  Delaware Beaches, Inland Sussex, Kent, and New Castle. In
  northeast Maryland, Caroline, Cecil, Kent MD, Queen Annes, and
  Talbot. In southern New Jersey, Atlantic, Atlantic Coastal
  Cape May, Camden, Cape May, Coastal Atlantic, Coastal Ocean,
  Cumberland, Gloucester, Northwestern Burlington, Ocean, Salem,
  and Southeastern Burlington. In Pennsylvania, Berks, Delaware,
  Eastern Chester, Eastern Montgomery, Philadelphia, Western
  Chester, and Western Montgomery.

* Through this afternoon

* Excessive rains on Friday, up to three inches, in parts of
  Delmarva, have saturated the grounds there. These rains occurred
  in addition to the rainfall that occurred over the last few
  days. Additional rains, of 0.50 to 1.25 inches can be expected
  through this 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 for the weekend. Low-lying and poor drainage
  flooding can still be expected to develop through today. The
  threat of flash flooding has lowered but is still possible with
  any thunderstorms that 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.
