The northern Mid-Atlantic region can expect rain through Monday, with accumulations of up to 1.5 inches over the next 72 hours. The heaviest rainfall will impact parts of Pennsylvania and New York, with lighter showers extending to surrounding areas.
According to the U.S. National Weather Service Middle Atlantic River Forecast Center, steady rain will continue through the weekend. By Sunday, rainfall amounts could range from 0.25 to 0.75 inches in some areas. On Monday, lighter rain will taper off, with totals of up to 0.1 inches expected by the afternoon. Despite the rainfall, local rivers, including those in the Susquehanna and Delaware basins, are forecast to remain stable.
Small river rises are anticipated early next week, but the forecast indicates no significant flood concerns. Residents should stay updated on local weather conditions as showers persist through the weekend, but the outlook remains calm for river flooding at this time.
Mid-Atlantic residents should prepare for wet conditions but can be reassured by the lack of major flood risks.
