THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE IN STATE COLLEGE PA HAS ISSUED A

* FLOOD ADVISORY FOR...
  WARREN COUNTY...

* UNTIL 1045 PM EDT...

* AT 913 PM EDT DOPPLER RADAR INDICATED HEAVY RAIN WAS FALLING DUE TO
SLOW MOVING THUNDERSTORMS. DOPPLER RADAR ESTIMATES THAT UP TO 2
INCHES OF RAIN HAS FALLEN IN THE LAST HOUR. EXPECT FLOODING TO BEGIN
SHORTLY.

* LOCATIONS IN THE ADVISORY INCLUDE BUT ARE NOT LIMITED TO
  CLARENDON...SUGAR GROVE AND WARREN.

ADDITIONAL HEAVY RAIN IS LIKELY TO FALL THROUGH 10 PM.

A FLOOD ADVISORY MEANS THAT ALTHOUGH STREAMS AND CREEKS MAY BE
ELEVATED OR EVEN RISE OUT OF THEIR BANKS...PROPERTY DAMAGE WILL BE
MINIMAL. INCONVENIENCES CAN BE EXPECTED BUT THE FLOODING WILL NOT BE
IMMEDIATELY LIFE THREATENING.

MOST FLOOD DEATHS OCCUR IN AUTOMOBILES. NEVER DRIVE YOUR VEHICLE INTO
AREAS WHERE THE WATER COVERS THE ROADWAY. FLOOD WATERS ARE USUALLY
DEEPER THAN THEY APPEAR. JUST ONE FOOT OF FLOWING WATER IS POWERFUL
ENOUGH TO SWEEP VEHICLES OFF THE ROAD. WHEN ENCOUNTERING FLOODED
ROADS MAKE THE SMART CHOICE...TURN AROUND...DONT DROWN.

BE ESPECIALLY CAUTIOUS AT NIGHT WHEN IT IS HARDER TO RECOGNIZE THE
DANGERS OF FLOODS.

TO REPORT FLOODING...HAVE THE NEAREST LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCY RELAY
YOUR REPORT TO THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE FORECAST OFFICE.

BE PREPARED TO TAKE ACTION IF THE FLOODING THREAT INCREASES...OR A
WARNING IS ISSUED.
