  northern Delaware, New Castle. In New Jersey, Camden, Coastal

  Thunderstorms will be capable of heavy rainfall, and training of
  thunderstorms is also possible. Total rain amounts will range
  from 1 to 2 inches with locally higher amounts possible.

* Flash flooding is possible in places where the heaviest
  thunderstorms persist. Rises on rivers and streams with the
  potential for urban, small stream, and poor drainage flooding is
  also possible.

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.
