...FLASH FLOOD WATCH IN EFFECT FROM NOON EDT TODAY THROUGH LATE
TONIGHT...

The National Weather Service in Mount Holly has issued a

* Flash Flood Watch for northeast Maryland, Delaware, eastern and
  southeastern Pennsylvania, and central and southern New Jersey.

* From noon EDT today through late tonight

* Strong thunderstorms are expected to develop and move through
  the region this afternoon and evening. The environment will be
  favorable for torrential rainfall with these storms.
  Additionally, storms may begin to track over the same locations
  as a very slow-moving front allows for the redevelopment of
  storms in similar locations over time. There is potential for
  one to three inches of rain in a very short period of time where
  the strongest storms occur.

* Flash flooding is possible where the strongest storms develop
  and persist. Flooding in urban and poor-drainage areas is likely
  if torrential downpours occur. Rises on small creeks and
  streams are possible as well.

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.
