Daily News | Severe storm, flood watches in effect as heavy rains start to rock the region
The National Weather Service has issued flood and severe thunderstorm watches for the Philadelphia region Sunday, cautioning that multiple rounds of heavy downpours are expected as some areas west of the city are already under water.
through midnight as water continues to rise in creeks, rivers and streams in parts of Delaware, Philadelphia, Montgomery and Bucks counties in Pennsylvania, and Salem, Gloucester, Camden and Burlington counties in New Jersey., which means the atmosphere is primed for lots of precipitation. Several rounds of flooding rain are possible in some areas.
By early afternoon, submerged vehicles were being reported in the Montgomery County communities of Upper Merion and Conshohocken, where live wires had also fallen. PECO has been called to the scene.Matt Brudy, a metrologist at the weather service’s Mount Holly office, said the strong storms are the result of a system that stretches from North Carolina through New England — but with what looks like the heaviest rain targeting the Philadelphia area.
Days of high humidity and high temperatures have left the atmosphere in the region like a soaked towel just waiting to be wrung out. “We have a stationary boundary across parts of eastern PA,” Brudy said. “We’re getting a big push of moisture. And the slow movement is leading to training storms and winds over the same area for prolonged periods of time.”“It is really going to really exacerbate the flash flooding,” he said.the system appears strongest just west of the I-95 corridor, but Brudy said there could be severe storms stretching down into Delaware and Maryland, and into South Jersey.
