IN NORTHEAST\r\n PENNSYLVANIA...BRADFORD...LACKAWANNA...LUZERNE...NORTHERN\r\n WAYNE...PIKE...SOUTHERN WAYNE...SUSQUEHANNA AND WYOMING.\r\n\r\n* THROUGH THIS EVENING\r\n\r\n* AN AREA OF MODERATE TO LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL WILL MOVE THROUGH\r\n  CENTRAL NEW YORK AND NORTHEAST PENNSYLVANIA THIS MORNING...AND\r\n  INTO THE AFTERNOON HOURS. A FEW THUNDERSTORMS MAY ALSO BE\r\n  EMBEDDED...WHICH COULD PRODUCE LOCALIZED RAINFALL AMOUNTS OF\r\n  0.25 TO 0.4 INCHES...WITHIN AN HOUR`S TIME. TOTAL RAINFALL\r\n  AMOUNTS...THROUGH LATE THIS AFTERNOON...SHOULD RANGE FROM 0.75\r\n  TO 1.25 INCHES FOR MOST OF THE AREA...WITH LOCALLY HIGHER\r\n  AMOUNTS NEAR 1.5 INCHES POSSIBLE. STEADIER RAIN SHOULD TAPER OFF\r\n  TO SCATTERED SHOWERS BY LATER IN THE DAY...MAINLY AFTER 3 OR 4\r\n  PM.\r\n\r\n* AN EXTENSIVE SNOW PACK EXISTS OVER MOST OF THE REGION. AS\r\n  TEMPERATURES RISE INTO THE 40S TODAY...SOME OF THIS SNOW WILL\r\n  MELT...BUT MUCH OF IT SHOULD REMAIN...AND ACTUALLY HELP ABSORB\r\n  THE RAINFALL. THE GREATEST FLOODING THREATS TODAY WILL BE ALONG\r\n  SMALLER CREEKS AND STREAMS...WHERE THE COMBINATION OF MILDER\r\n  TEMPERATURES AND RAINFALL...COULD HELP LIFT CHUNKS OF ICE...AND\r\n  ELEVATE THE RISK OF ICE JAMS. ALSO...IN AREAS IMPACTED BY\r\n  THUNDERSTORMS AND MORE INTENSE SHORT DURATION RAINFALL\r\n  RATES...INADEQUATE DRAINAGE COULD RESULT IN RUNOFF\r\n  PROBLEMS...ESPECIALLY OVER PORTIONS OF NORTHEAST\r\n  PENNSYLVANIA...WHERE THE SNOW PACK IS LESS...AND A FROZEN GROUND\r\n  SURFACE IS MORE EXPOSED. AT THIS POINT...NO FLOODING IS EXPECTED\r\n  ON THE LARGER RIVER SYSTEMS...WITH HALF TO THREE-QUARTER BANKFUL\r\n  RISES COMMON.\r\n\r\nPRECAUTIONARY\/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...\r\n\r\nA FLOOD WATCH MEANS THERE IS THE POTENTIAL FOR FLOODING ON SMALL\r\nSTREAMS...CREEKS...POOR DRAINAGE...URBAN AND LOW-LYING AREAS\r\nBASED ON CURRENT FORECASTS. YOU SHOULD MONITOR LATER FORECASTS\r\nAND BE ALERT FOR POSSIBLE FLOOD WARNINGS. THOSE LIVING...WORKING\r\nOR DRIVING IN AREAS PRONE TO FLOODING SHOULD BE PREPARED TO TAKE\r\nACTION SHOULD FLOODING DEVELOP.\r\n<\/pre>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
