The radar

The Philadelphia radar (KDIX), 27 km from the middle of the area, began a volume at 04:58 UTC, the scan nearest the moment this went out.

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

Brookhaven, NY (KOKX), launched 00:00Z, 4.9 hours before the alert went out and 173 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.

What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before this flash flood warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.

NWS Philadelphia/Mount Holly wrote its last area forecast discussion before this flash flood warning went out at Jul 28, 9:12 PM EDT, 3 hours 44 minutes earlier. Its key messages:

1. Flash flooding remains possible tonight, but the severe thunderstorm and tornado risk has generally declined. 2. There will be lingering chances for some showers and thunderstorms across portions of the area for Thursday and Friday however severe weather and flash flooding is not expected.

Area forecast discussion, Jul 28, 9:12 PM EDT, 3 hours 44 minutes before

Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Mount Holly NJ
912 PM EDT Tue Jul 28 2026

.WHAT HAS CHANGED...
Severe thunderstorm and tornado watches have been cancelled.

&&

.KEY MESSAGES...
1. Flash flooding remains possible tonight, but the severe
thunderstorm and tornado risk has generally declined.

2. There will be lingering chances for some showers and
thunderstorms across portions of the area for Thursday and Friday
however severe weather and flash flooding is not expected.

&&

.DISCUSSION...
KEY MESSAGE 1... Flash flooding remains possible tonight, but
the severe thunderstorm and tornado risk has generally declined.

Instability has waned this evening, and the severe thunderstorm
and tornado risk has waned considerably with it. Therefore, both
watches have been cancelled. While a random stronger cell isn't
impossible over the next few hours, the risk has declined
considerably.

The Flood Watch remains up for the area and several Flash Flood
Warnings remain in effect. When all is said and done, the
updated QPF forecast through Wednesday is around 2 to 4 inches
of rain north of I-78, with 1 to 3 inches elsewhere. As is usual
in summer convective setups, locally higher amounts are
possible. HREF Max in northern New Jersey has highly localized
amounts up to 8" through Wednesday. Have multiple ways to
receive any flood alerts.

As low pressure meanders, another front will come through on
Wednesday, capable of producing some heavy downpours yet again
for the northern third of the region. This will move over some
more urbanized areas in North Jersey that should get a decent
amount of rainfall today, potentially causing more problems.
While mainstem river flooding is not currently forecast, some
smaller creeks and streams within the Passaic and Raritan basins
could see some rises that result in flooding.

KEY MESSAGE 2...There will be lingering chances for some showers and
thunderstorms across portions of the area for Thursday and Friday
however severe weather and flash flooding is not expected.

Low pressure and its associated upper level trough will be slow
to depart to our east through the course of Thursday and
Friday. This will keep chances for showers and thunderstorms in
the forecast, especially for Thursday. For Thursday, forecast
models continue to depict a closed circulation at 500mb slowly
drifting east through New England. Along the backside of this
feature, some showers and thunderstorms are likely to affect the
area with the highest POPs (around 60 percent) for portions of
central and NJ. In terms of timing, it should be mainly focused
around the afternoon into the early evening period coincident
with peak heating. Generally expect highs ranging from the
middle to upper 70s north to the low to mid 80s south.

For Friday, the system will continue to pull farther away so by and
large it should be a partly to mostly sunny day with slightly warm
temperatures compared to Thursday. However still can't rule out some
isolated showers and storms in the afternoon mainly over NJ into
portion of eastern PA (mainly north of Philly). POPs though are only
around 20 percent.

&&

.AVIATION /01Z WEDNESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
The following discussion is for KPHL, KPNE, KTTN, KABE, KRDG,
KILG, KMIV, KACY and surrounding areas.

Tonight...Mostly VFR early this evening but then primarily MVFR/IFR
conditions with showers and thunderstorms. The rains will
diminish by 04Z most sites. After that, low clouds and fog
possible thru the night. Low confid overall.

Wednesday... Low clouds may linger across NJ and Delaware early
but then improvement to VFR at most sites by mid/late morning.
Scattered showers/tstms for the afternoon across NJ.DE.
Low/medium confid.

Outlook...

Wednesday night through Thursday...Primarily VFR though an unsettled
pattern will result in some restrictions with showers, low clouds,
and isolated thunderstorms, especially from KPHL on north. The best
chances for any showers/storms will be in the afternoon into the
early evening periods.

Thursday Night through Saturday...VFR. No significant weather.

Sunday...Mainly VFR though with some chances for showers/storms
returning by the afternoon into the evening can't rule out some
restrictions.

&&

.MARINE...
Small Craft Advisory remains up for all ocean zones as
southerly wind gusts around 25 kt are expected with seas around
5 feet. Showers and thunderstorms expected on the waters
through tonight and into Wednesday morning. Winds and seas
diminish Wednesday.

Outlook...

Wednesday night through Sunday...No marine headlines are currently
anticipated.

Rip Currents...

For Wednesday and Thursday, winds turn more offshore around 10
MPH or less. Breaking waves will also decrease to around 2 feet
or less. While the Full Moon is on Wednesday, decreasing wave
heights, more offshore flow, and no wave period longer than 8
seconds should limit the rip current threat. As a result,
elected for a LOW risk for rip currents at all beaches.
