Rain will be heavy at times... especially during the day Saturday as Hanna makes its closest approach to Pennsylvania... along the New Jersey coast. Rainfall amounts of 1 to 3 inches are expected with locally heavier amounts possible.

A Flood Watch means that flooding is possible but not imminent in the watch area. Check your preparedness requirements... especially if you have interests along rivers or streams in the area.
