Creeks and streams may rise out of their banks. Flooding may occur in poor drainage and urban areas. * ADDITIONAL DETAILS... - High atmospheric moisture content combined with an approaching front late tonight through Sunday will result in numerous showers and thunderstorms capable of heavy rainfall. Widespread rainfall amounts of 1 to 2 inches are forecast, with localized amounts of 3 to 5 inches possible in some areas where thunderstorms are more persistent. These totals may result in flash flooding, particularly in flood-prone urban and low-lying areas. Additionally, there will be some potential for main stem river flooding following the heavy rain, due to excessive runoff. The greatest threat will be in areas that have recently had heavy rain and flooding, were soils are already saturated, in portions of eastern Pennsylvania and northern and central New Jersey. - http://www.weather.gov/safety/flood
