Full Notification

The National Weather Service has issued a Flood Watch until Monday, 5pm. Rainfall totals of 2 to 4 inches with locally higher amounts are forecast across the watch area today into Monday. The heaviest rainfall is expected to fall overnight into Monday morning. The combination of heavy rainfall and the already saturated grounds due to heavier rain over the last week could result in streams across the area experiencing rapid increases and flooding along low-lying and flood-prone locations. High wind is possible, please secure outdoor items including holiday decorations. Report all power outages to PSE&G and call 911 for dangerous hazards. Please see below for additional information from PSE&G.

Customer safety:

• Downed wires should always be considered “live.” Stay at least 30 feet away from downed lines, and don’t go near the pole or anything touching the line. Immediately contact PSE&G, at 1-800-436-PSEG (7734), via our mobile app or our website, to report downed wires and dial 911 if an immediate hazard exists.
• Electric current passes easily through water, so stay away from downed power lines and electrical wires. Don't drive over – and don't stand near – downed power lines.
• Downed lines can potentially be hidden in standing water. If you encounter large pools of standing water, stop, back up and choose another path.
• To prevent carbon monoxide poisoning, do not run any gasoline-powered generators in a garage or any other enclosed space.
• If you are on life-sustaining medical equipment, ensure that you alert PSE&G in advance and notify your local police and fire departments. For more information, visit www.pseg.com/life.
