ReadyMontco - Hatboro Alert

This is a message from ReadyMontco

From our partners at the Montgomery County Department of Public Safety and National Weather Service (NWS):

NWS has issued a flood watch in effect from 7pm tonight through 7pm Thursday. The combination of higher confidence in 1.5 to 2" of rainfall with potential for 3" in localized areas and discussions with the River Forecast Center in State College PA lead to issuing a Flood Watch this morning. The WPC Excessive Rainfall Outlook has also been increased to a Slight Risk across the region.

The latest information regarding this system is below:

1. Locally heavy rainfall with event total amounts up to 1" to 2", with the highest amounts southeast of I-95, may result in instances of isolated flooding in urban, poor drainage areas and along creeks and streams. The heaviest rain will pass through tonight, between 6 PM and 4 AM.

2. Winds will be relatively light in most of our region from this system. The highest winds will be on the coast, but even there we only expect some localized gusts of 25 mph on Wednesday evening.
