...FLASH FLOOD WATCH IN EFFECT FROM 2 AM EDT SATURDAY THROUGH
SATURDAY AFTERNOON...

The National Weather Service in Mount Holly has issued a

* Flash Flood Watch for portions of the New Jersey shore and
  Middlesex County.

* From 2 AM EDT Saturday through Saturday afternoon

* Two to three inches of rain with locally higher amounts are
  expected late tonight into Saturday morning, associated with
  the coastal storm which will be affecting the region.

* Leaf clogged drains and coastal flooding could further
  exacerbate flooding issues. If the axis of heaviest rainfall
  develops further inland, urban areas of Middlesex and Monmouth
  Counties in particular could see quick rises on small streams
  and roadway flooding.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

A Flash Flood Watch means that there is the potential for flash
flooding which can be life-threatening. Heavy rain is expected to
occur over a short period of time. Rapidly rising flood waters
may quickly inundate roadways and areas of poor drainage. Streams
and creeks could leave their banks, flooding nearby properties.

Please monitor the forecast, especially if you live in a location
that is prone to flooding. Be prepared to take action if a flash
flood warning is issued for your area.
