The threat for more heavy rain is still in the forecast for tomorrow. Most locations that were flooded today will likely see another round of afternoon showers and storms. Stay alert to the forecast tomorrow and have a way to get warnings. If a Flash Flood Warning is issued for your area, seek higher ground immediately. We will finally see gradual clearing late tomorrow night and Wednesday is trending much drier for parts of the Northeast as this low pressure system moves east and out of the region. Another weak boundary may trigger a few isolated showers/storms for parts of New Hampshire, Vermont and Maine; however, Pennsylvania and New York will see more calm and fair weather skies.
