March 27th 2010
Time: 3:40 AM
Time frame effected: March 28th 9 PM thru March 30th 6 AM
Areas effected: Southern New England, NYC, All of NJ, All of Long Island, East Central PA , Southeast PA, All of NJ, Delaware & Eastern Md.
Low pressure developing over the southern Plains will become a closed low once it is along the eastern sea board, This low pressure area will move East Northeast and be near SW Ohio by 00z Monday.
This area of low pressure will tap into the GOM and be a very moisture laden system as well as a slow moving system. The abundant moisture and the slow movement of this system will enhance the flood threat across the above mentioned regions. Many of these regions are still experiencing higher then normal rivers from the previous rain events that have occurred.
Right now it appears that the heaviest rain fall will be situated over some of the same areas that had previously been hit hard with the potential for 2-4 inches of rain and with any convective rain and storms locally higher amounts.
Real Wx Services will continue to monitor the situation. Next statement to be issued March 28th at 2 AM at which time an upgrade to level 3 will be issued if guidance continues to indicate the flooding potential.
Real Wx Services will also issue its one and only map at that point and time.
Make any necessary precautions if you live in a area that is prone to flooding.
