Thunderstorms and a Flood Advisory, 6/14-15, 2015
Pouring in Maplewood right now - WINS just announced that the heaviest rains with this storm are over Maplewood and Union! Water is cascading down the gutters on Park Road - watch out on Valley, and all the other places that usually flood!
Listening to police scanner, something about water pressure popping open a manhole cover, somewhere in Tuscan area I believe. Wow.
Now something about heavy traffic on JFK parkway and that the road is impassable.
Well over an inch so far from this storm. If you see flooding, report it on this form: http://www.erh.noaa.gov/er/okx/report.php
Or you can post it to the NWS New York office Facebook Page: https://www.facebook.com/NWSNewYorkNY?fref=ts
Note I cannot report what I do not personally see, so your reports of what you have actually observed help with emergency management -- I cannot relay them to the NWS and the NWS does not check MOL.
