The low pressure system is forecast to continue moving slowly
northeastward across the Ohio Valley early this morning and into
the Lower Great Lakes region by midday today. Plentiful tropical
moisture streaming northward interacting with the system will
continue to produce heavy rain across far eastern parts of the
Ohio Valley, the Lower Great Lakes and much of the northern
Mid-Atlantic region today, while continuing to spread into the
Northeast. The heaviest additional rainfall totals are forecast
for for the central and northern Appalachians, as well as portions
of the Northeast and northern Mid-Atlantic states, where
widespread totals of 1 to 2 inches are possible, with locally
higher amounts. Significant flooding is ongoing across northern
Maryland and parts of Pennsylvania. Farther east, WPC has
highlighted parts of the northern Mid-Atlantic states and
Northeast within a Slight Risk for excessive rainfall/flash
flooding.
The next storm summary will be issued by the Weather Prediction
Center at 1100 AM EDT. Please refer to your local National Weather
Service office for additional information on this event.
