Flood Watch

Rain Chances Continue

Expect visibility reductions to as low as a quarter of a mile in dense fog in the advisory area. Patchy dense fog is also possible in the remainder of the area overnight and into Thursday morning.

Multiple rounds of showers/storms will bring heavy rainfall to the region over the next few days. A Flood Watch is in effect for the entire Tri-State Area this evening (Tuesday September 29) through late Thursday afternoon (October 01). Most or all of the area is forecast to see 1 to 3" of rain over the next 48 hours. Locally heavier amounts (up to 5") are possible. Widespread heavy rain may lead to flooding in rivers, creeks, streams and other low-lying areas. Torrential rainfall with slow moving storms could lead to isolated flash flooding during the morning hours on both Wednesday and Thursday. Be alert for possible Flood Warnings and be prepared to take action and move to higher ground, should flooding develop.
