You should monitor later forecasts and be alert for possible Flood
Warnings. Those living in areas prone to flooding should be prepared
to take action should flooding develop.
FLOOD WATCH REMAINS IN EFFECT FROM SUNDAY AFTERNOON THROUGH
MONDAY AFTERNOON...
* WHAT...Flooding caused by excessive rainfall continues to be
possible.
* WHERE...A portion of central Pennsylvania, including the following
counties, Columbia, Dauphin, Lancaster, Lebanon, Montour,
Northumberland, Schuylkill, Sullivan and York.
* WHEN...From Sunday afternoon through Monday afternoon.
* IMPACTS...Excessive runoff may result in flooding of rivers,
creeks, streams, and other low-lying and flood-prone locations.
* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...
- With generally dry soil conditions and near to below average
streamflows over east-central Pennsylvania, rainfall will be
largely beneficial in nature. However, with rainfall forecast
to exceed 2 inches, there may be some runoff impacts. The
threat of flash flooding is low given modest rainfall rates
less than 1 inch per hour, but some urban, poor drainage, and
small stream flood impacts will be a possibility.
