The National Weather Service office in Mount Holly, New Jersey has issued a Flash Flood Warning that took effect at 12:26 AM EDT on Sunday, July 6, and is set to expire at 3:00 AM EDT the same morning.
Residents in the affected area are urged to take this warning seriously and avoid any travel through areas prone to flooding. Officials consistently remind the public that just a few inches of moving water can sweep a person off their feet, and even deeper water can carry away a vehicle.
If you encounter a flooded road, turn around and find an alternate route. Do not attempt to cross flooded areas on foot or by vehicle. Move to higher ground immediately if you are in a low-lying area.
Stay tuned to TV Delmarva and your local National Weather Service updates for the latest information as this warning remains in effect through the early morning hours.
