Additional rainfall and flooding expected as next round of storms comes through
Another round of storms is moving through the area. Because of the already saturated ground, this round of storms will cause additional flooding. The additional winds may also cause power lines to come down.
Currently Outer State Street is closed due to flooding. Please stay inside if at all possible. If you need to travel, please be alert for additional road closures and slowed or stopped traffic on open roadways. If you see a flooded road that is not closed, TURN AROUND, DON'T DROWN.
If you see utility lines down, avoid them and alert emergency responders by calling 9-1-1. For power outages, please contact PSE&G.

For all non-emergency related inquiries, please contact Perth Amboy Police at 732-442-4400.
