The National Weather Service office out of Mount Holly, New Jersey has put a Flood Watch into effect starting in the early morning hours of July 9th at 2:09 AM Eastern Time, with the watch set to expire at midnight on July 10th.
A Flood Watch means that conditions are favorable for flooding to develop in the watch area. Residents should monitor the latest forecasts and be ready to take action if a Flood Warning is issued.
Officials urge people to avoid driving through flooded roadways and to stay away from streams, drainage ditches, and other low-lying areas that can rise quickly during heavy rainfall. Remember — it only takes a small amount of moving water to sweep a vehicle off the road.
For the latest updates, residents should monitor official National Weather Service forecasts and local emergency management communications.
