...FLASH FLOOD WATCH REMAINS IN EFFECT THROUGH THIS EVENING...

The Flash Flood Watch continues for

* The Pennsylvania counties of Carbon, Monroe, Northampton, 
  Lehigh, Berks, Chester, Montgomery, Bucks, Delaware and 
  Philadelphia, for the New Jersey counties of Sussex, Warren, 
  Morris, Hunterdon, Somerset, Middlesex, Mercer, Monmouth, 
  Burlington, Camden, Gloucester and Salem, for New Castle County 
  in Delaware and for Cecil County in Maryland.

* Through this evening

* Several rounds of heavy showers and thunderstorms are expected 
  to impact the area into this evening. The storms will be capable
  of producing very heavy downpours resulting in urban, small 
  stream and flash flooding.
 
* Heavy rainfall within a short period of time can lead to 
  rapidly rising water and flash flooding, particularly in urban 
  areas, and along small streams and creeks. The ground remains 
  fairly saturated due to the recent heavy rainfall.

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.

...FLASH FLOOD WATCH REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL MIDNIGHT EDT
TONIGHT...

The Flash Flood Watch continues for

* Portions of northern Delaware, northeast Maryland, New Jersey, 
  and Pennsylvania, including the following areas, in northern 
  Delaware, New Castle. In northeast Maryland, Cecil. In New 
  Jersey, Camden, Gloucester, Hunterdon, Mercer, Middlesex, 
  Morris, Northwestern Burlington, Salem, Somerset, Sussex, 
  Warren, and Western Monmouth. In Pennsylvania, Berks, Carbon, 
  Delaware, Eastern Chester, Eastern Montgomery, Lehigh, Lower 
  Bucks, Monroe, Northampton, Philadelphia, Upper Bucks, Western 
  Chester, and Western Montgomery. 

* Until midnight EDT tonight.

* Additional showers and storms will develop through this evening.
  This activity will be much less organized than the prior round
  of heavy rain that produced flash flooding in northern Delaware,
  eastern Pennsylvania and New Jersey this morning. However, 
  showers and storms late this afternoon and evening will be slow 
  moving and capable of producing very heavy downpours.
 
* Given the saturated soils, elevated streams and ongoing flooding,
  it will not take much rainfall to produce additional urban, 
  small stream and localized flash 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.
