The National Weather Service in Mount Holly has expanded the

* Flash Flood Watch to include a portion of northern New Jersey,

  including the following areas, Morris, Sussex, and Warren.

* Until 10 PM EDT this evening

  along outflow boundaries through the afternoon across portions

  of the Lehigh Valley and into northwestern New Jersey. Slow

  storm motion and high rainfall rates may result in flash

  occurred.

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.
