More Rain Brings Flood Watch to the Area

We might be in for rain. A lot more rain in the next few days.

After a thorough drenching by last week that brought to Woodbridge, the National Weather Service has advised that the local area is under a flood watch from this afternoon through Wednesday evening.

A flood watch means we can expect 2 to 4 inches of rain within the next 48 hours, with some areas of Middlesex County getting soaked with as much as 6 inches of rain by noon Wednesday. 

The new rainwater on ground still saturated from last week's storms and floods means we can expect a new round of basement, small stream, and street flooding, the National Weather Service advised.

The weather forecast for the next few days has certain storms through Wednesday, with a 50 percent possibility the rain will continue through Thursday.

This weather advisory will be updated as new information is received.
