Storm Tonight into Saturday PM Brings Heavy Rain & Strong Winds
A strong storm is on track to impact our area beginning tonight, bringing up to 4" of heavy rain to the coast and strong winds up to 45mph. The rain is expected to begin later tonight and continue into Saturday evening, with widespread totals of 2-3" around the state and up to 4" along the shore. In preparation for the storm, the Department of Public Works has been clearing storm drains of leaves and has lowered the water levels of our lakes in accordance with DEP regulations.
If you plan to be on the road later tonight night or anytime Saturday, prepare extra travel time and use caution as roadway flooding is possible in low-lying areas. Strong gusty winds have the potential to cause power outages, so be sure to secure any loose outdoor items, keep your electronics charged, report power outages to JCP&L, and call 9-1-1 if you observe downed power lines or trees fallen across roadways. Please remember to #TurnAroundDontDrown and do not drive through flooded roads.
