   and potentially some tornado risk. Other storms will also increase
   this afternoon south-southwestward across the Delmarva and broader
   parts of northern/eastern Virginia to eastern Maryland, with
   damaging winds and some hail possible in these areas.

   The severe thunderstorm watch area is approximately along and 65
   statute miles north and south of a line from 20 miles southeast of
   Lakehurst NJ to 55 miles west southwest of Washington DC. For a
   complete depiction of the watch see the associated watch outline
   update (WOUS64 KWNS WOU4).

   PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

   REMEMBER...A Severe Thunderstorm Watch means conditions are
   favorable for severe thunderstorms in and close to the watch area.
   Persons in these areas should be on the lookout for threatening
   weather conditions and listen for later statements and possible
   warnings. Severe thunderstorms can and occasionally do produce
   tornadoes.

   &&

   AVIATION...A few severe thunderstorms with hail surface and aloft to
   1.5 inches. Extreme turbulence and surface wind gusts to 60 knots. A
   few cumulonimbi with maximum tops to 500. Mean storm motion vector

Looks like extents up to Middlesex and Somerset Co lines but does not include anyone north of there so you can see where the severe threat will be setting up for today but once again heavy rain and strong storms will be a threat north of there.

So far havent even had any thunder with the downpours

Curious, if 1 inch of rain falls, for how long am I good to turn off my underground sprinklers for and save on my water bill? Or, is it contingent on sky cover and temps the next day or 2 ?
