A significant storm system, which moves along the Eastern United States, will bring torrential rain, lightning floods and serious storms to parts of the northeast and middle Atlantic until the beginning of Friday morning, while colder and less humid air from Canada promises relief to the weekend, according to AccuWeather Meteorology.
Lightning Flood Risk zones: Over 40 million affected
According to Accuweather, the “one-two punch” of the approaching cold front is expected to create a line of heavy rain from Eastern Pennsylvania, Eastern Maryland, North Virginia and North Delaware, north through Lower Hudson Valley, New York, and Connect, Rhode Island and parts of Massachus.
This area – a time of approximately 43 million people – can, according to a meteorological agency’s prognosis, receive 2 to 4 inches of rain, with a located amount of up to 8 inches. Cares at this intensity could amaze the storm outflows and cause urban lightning floods, to disrupt motorways such as Interstate 95, and lead to metro floods in large cities like New York.
Degree of this size can result in a rapid climb on small streams and significant drainage in poorly exhausted areas, accuweather warned.
Heavy storms from Pennsylvania to South Carolina
Accuweather also predicts serious storms with damaging wind impacts and localized floods on Thursday through a section from South Pennsylvania and South New Jersey, down via Delaware, Virginia, North Carolina and South Carolina.
Although storms with lightning flood potential will be dispersed in this area, the largest precipitation concentration is expected through the northern level of the storm zone, especially until Thursday evening, Accuweather said.
On Friday, the isolated strong storms can continue south along the Atlantic coast, including South Georgia.
Pushing rain extends from the Midwest to the northeast
Heavy downpours, which began on Wednesday evening in Central Indiana, North Ohio, Northwest Pennsylvania, Western and Central Poststate New York and even parts of South Ontario, according to Accuweather, move east and continue to saturate.
Canadian high pressure brings relief
After the storm rises, high pressure from the central Canada will push the northeast and middle Atlantic and the weekend will replace the summer air with the summer air cooler.
Accuweather notes that typical maximum for this time of year ranges from 80. This weekend, however, the daily maximum will range from the 60s in the mountains of a low 80.
The night minimum will dive into the 40 years in the mountain areas of New York, Vermont and New Hampshire, with 60 years expected in most urban areas along the I-95. According to Accuweather, the temperature of up to 30 years up to 30 years could even see that temperatures fall within 30 years.
Coast winds and the risk of floods
The stiff northeast breeze, powered by the pressure difference between the Canadian high and the storm developing along the southeast coast, can affect the Coast New England and the Central Atlantic, warned by senior senior meteorologist Accuweather Dave Dombek.
This wind on the mainland could mix harsh surfing and tear the currents and push water levels of 1-2 feet above normal, leading to small floods in low -lying coastal communities such as CAPE COD, Atlantic City and Ocean City, Maryland.
