phlwx Posted September 28, 2011 Share Posted September 28, 2011 Flash Flood Watches out for Eastern PA and NW NJ today. Most of this appears to be scattered so it may be another hit/miss event locally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NaoPos Posted September 28, 2011 Share Posted September 28, 2011 Flash Flood Watches out for Eastern PA and NW NJ today. Most of this appears to be scattered so it may be another hit/miss event locally. All kidding aside, just going by radar trends from the last 2 days with this ULL set up, seems likely that some decent scattered convection should be able to cause flash flooding.

phlwx Posted September 28, 2011 Share Posted September 28, 2011 at the video The goods down in VA should track up into S C PA later on based on current progs, might skirt western burbs but most of it should trek west of city later on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LVblizzard Posted September 28, 2011 Share Posted September 28, 2011 Flash flooding all over Allentown. A good chunk of the west side of the city's power is out. There were intersections underwater that I've never seen even close to being flooded before. At one point I couldn't even see 200 feet in front of me on the road. That was the heaviest rain I've ever seen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ABE SnowObserver Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 Parts of MacArthur road under water by the Whitehall Mall and near the high school. Emergency teams all over the place. Several roads closed between East Allentown and North Whitehall. Never, ever drove in such intense rain before and vivid cloud to ground lightning. Firemen in front of McDonalds on 7th street up to their knees in standing water-and it all happened in such a short period. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grothar Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 Well over 5 inches for the day here in macungie. Pretty bad flash flooding. I spent quite a bit of time keeping the storm sewer grate clear of leaves. Spring Creek Rd is closed because of flooding. My backyard is a lake once again.

RkTec Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 Probably the most intense rainfall rates of the year this evening IMBY. Davis weather station recorded a max rainfall rate of 10.29"/hr at 6:29 p.m. Despite that, I ended up with a total of 2.13" of rain which was enough to create a 3 tier waterfall in the backyard for 45 minutes or so and some flash flooding on the roadways in the area. Most of the rain fell within an hour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
