The radar
The Binghamton radar (KBGM), 48 km from the middle of the area, began a volume at 07:34 UTC, the scan nearest the moment this went out.
Open the radar archive at this moment
The archived warnings, watches and discussions in force at that minute are drawn over the scan, this one among them.
Did it verify
Not verified. The Iowa Environmental Mesonet's Cow found no qualifying storm report inside this flash flood warning while it was in force. That is not proof nothing happened: reports are thin where few people live.
Cow counts a report within 15 km of the polygon while the warning was in force: a tornado for a tornado warning; hail of 1 inch or more, a gust of 58 mph or more or wind damage for a severe thunderstorm warning; a flash flood report for a flash flood warning.
The nearest sounding before it
Albany, NY (KALY), launched 00:00Z, 7.6 hours before the alert went out and 205 km from the middle of its area. This is the routine balloon launch nearest before it, the air the forecaster had in hand, not a measurement taken for the alert.

Area forecast discussion, Sep 8, 3:23 AM EDT, 10 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BINGHAMTON NY
323 AM EDT THU SEP 8 2011
.SYNOPSIS...
HEAVY RAIN WILL CONTINUE OVERNIGHT...WITH MAJOR FLOODING
PERSISTING THROUGH AT LEAST THURSDAY. ALTHOUGH THE STEADIEST RAIN
SHOULD TAPER OFF BY THURSDAY AFTERNOON...THE CHANCE OF SHOWERS OR
THUNDERSTORMS WILL LINGER THROUGH WEEK'S END.
&&
.NEAR TERM /UNTIL NOON TODAY/...
305 AM UPDATE...A LONG TRAIN OF HEAVY RAIN CONTINUES TO STREAM OUT
OF NORTHERN MD TOWARD NY/PA, ALMOST EXACTLY ALONG THE SAME PATH
THAT HAS DELUGED AREAS OVER THE LAST 24 HOURS. THE PROBLEM
CONTINUES TO BE THE TROPICAL MOISTURE TRAPPED BETWEEN SYSTEMS,
RIDING NORTHWARD WITHIN THE NEARLY STATIONARY UL JET ENTRANCE REGION.
THE ONLY POTENTIAL GOOD NEWS IS THAT THE MODELS SHOW A SLIGHT
SHIFT IN THE JET AFTER 12Z...POTENTIALLY ROBBING THE MOISTURE
STREAM OF ENHANCED LIFT AND WEAKENING THE NORTHWARD STREAMING OF
HIGH PWATS.
WITH THIS IN MIND WE ARE KEEPING A VERY HEAVY RAIN BAND INTO THE
SOUTHERN TIER OF NY THROUGH 12Z, THEN FORECASTING THE BAND TO
BECOME DISORGANIZED BETWEEN 12Z AND 16Z. BY AFTERNOON, THE
PRECIPITATION SHOULD BE SHOWERY IN NATURE.
WE ARE CONVINCED THERE WILL BE ADDITIONAL FLASH FLOODING AFTER THE
BAND BECOMES DISORGANIZES...BUT THERE IS NO WAY TO PREDICT AS OF
YET WHERE THIS WILL OCCUR.
815 PM UPDATE... AFTER A BRIEF LULL IN THE HEAVIER RAIN EARLIER
THIS EVE...ANOTHER ENHANCED BAND IS ABT READY TO COME BACK INTO NE
PA AND THE SRN TIER. A LONG AXIS OF MOIST IS STILL STREAMING INTO THE
WELL DEVELOPED JET ENTRANCE RGN...WITH LEE'S REMNANTS...AND
KATIA'S MOIST STREAM STILL AT PLAY. NOT GOOD. FLOODING PROBLEMS
WILL ONLY WORSEN LATER THIS EVE.
TOWARDS 09-12Z...WE TRIED TO SHOW A BACK EDGE TO THE +RA COMING
INTO THE CWA FROM THE SSW. UNFORTUNATELY...HVY SHWRS/TSTMS ARE
STILL TRAINING THRU VA/ERN MD...SO WE'LL SEE HOW THINGS TRANSPIRE
AS THE NIGHT PROGRESSES.
&&
.SHORT TERM /NOON TODAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
DESPITE OVERCAST CLOUD FORECAST, WE ARE PREDICTING TEMPS WILL RISE
INTO THE LOWER 70S TODAY AS RAIN BAND DISORGANIZES INTO GENERAL
SHOWERS. HINTS OF THIS ARE ALREADY EVIDENT IN AREAS SEEING BREAKS
IN THE RAIN OVERNIGHT...TEMPS ARE RISING.
FORECAST MAX TEMPS OF 71-74F GENERALLY EQUATE TO A FEW HUNDRED
JOULES OF CAPE AND NEGATIVE LI'S. SO WE EXPECT A FEW THUNDERSTORMS
TO FORM DURING THE AFTERNOON HOURS INTO EARLY EVENING. ANY OF
THESE THUNDERSTORMS WILL HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO CAUSE ADDITIONAL
FLASH FLOODING. ADDITIONAL CONCERN IS SHORT MBE VECTORS. LITTLE TO
NO SEVERE POTENTIAL GIVEN HORRIBLE SHEAR PROFILE.
MOSTLY CLOUDY AND SHOWERY CONDITIONS FORECAST INTO SATURDAY, WITH
TEMPS RISING INTO THE MIDDLE 70S FOR FRIDAY AND SATURDAY
AFTERNOON. AGAIN EXPECT A FEW THUNDERSTORMS TO FORM DURING THE
AFTERNOON HOURS.
&&
.LONG TERM /SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
LOW CONFIDENCE XTNDD PD AS WEAK UPR RDG TRIES TO HOLD OFF ADTNL
TROPICAL MOISTURE. GFS IS COMPLETELY DFRNT THAN THE ECMWF WITH A
FAST MVG NRN STREAM WV ON MON BRINGING BRIEF PD OF RAIN. FOR
NOW...HAVE LEANED TWRD THE ECMWF SOLN THAT KEEPS MOST OF THE
MOISTURE SOUTH OF THE REGION THRU THE PD. THIS AGREES BETTER WITH
THE PRVS FCST...AND SURROUNDING OFFICES. FLWD HPC GUID FOR TEMPS.
&&
.AVIATION /08Z THURSDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
BAND OF RAIN WITH OCCASIONAL BURSTS OF VERY HEAVY RAIN WILL
CONTINUE TO EFFECT THE TAF SITES THROUGH 15Z THURSDAY. THE RAIN
SHOULD DIMINISH TO SHOWERS THURSDAY AFTERNOON. CONDITIONS ARE
MOSTLY MVFR THROUGH 13Z WITH OCNL IFR IN HEAVY RAIN BURSTS AND VFR
WHEN THE RAIN BECOMES LIGHTER. CONDITIONS SHOULD IMPROVE TO MAINLY
VFR DURING THE AFTERNOON THURSDAY ALTHOUGH THERE WILL STILL BE
SCATTERED SHOWERS IN THE AREA WITH LOCALIZED HEAVY RAIN.
OUTLOOK...
WED NGT INTO THU NGT...MVFR AND IFR IN SHOWERS AND FOG.
FRI TO SAT...VFR/MVFR WITH SEMITROPICAL MOISTURE STILL HERE AND
SOME SHOWERS.
SUN/MON...VFR.
&&
.HYDROLOGY...
420 PM UPDATE... RAINFALL FROM TODAY SO FAR (3-6")...WITHIN
THE HEAVIER PCPN BAND...PLUS ADDITIONAL EXPECTED QPF THROUGH
06-12Z...IS NOW EXPECTED TO PRODUCE MAJOR/NEAR RECORD FLOODING IN
THE SUSQ BASIN. MDT-MAJ FLOODING IS FORESEEN ON THE UPPER
