Full Notification

Mercer County and the surrounding areas are under a flash flood watch in effect through Wednesday morning. A frontal boundary will push slowly south across the region through Wednesday morning. This will lead to a chance of showers and thunderstorms through tonigh. Heavy rainfall can be expected with some of the thunderstorms. Recent rainfall over the past few days has already saturated the ground. Additional rainfall may cause localized flash flooding issues.

A flash flood watch means that flooding of small steams, creeks and other drainage areas is possible within the watch area. People in the watch area should keep an eye on the weather and be prepared for immediate action should heavy rains and flooding occur or a flash flood warning be issued.
