Philadelphia, PA – Rounds of showers and thunderstorms will continue across the Mid-Atlantic today, bringing up to 2 inches of rainfall in some areas, according to the National Weather Service. The heaviest rain is expected to last through Monday morning, with locally higher amounts possible.

According to the US National Weather Service Middle Atlantic River Forecast Center, most rivers in the region are expected to remain within their banks. However, localized minor flooding cannot be ruled out, especially in areas where heavy downpours persist.

Residents in Maryland, Pennsylvania, and surrounding states should be prepared for wet conditions that could impact travel. The heaviest rainfall is expected in urban and low-lying areas, where water may pool on roads. Motorists should use caution when driving through heavy rain and avoid flooded roadways.
