...FLASH FLOOD WARNING REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL 815 PM EDT THIS

EVENING FOR EAST CENTRAL ALLEGHENY AND WEST CENTRAL WESTMORELAND

COUNTIES...



At 718 PM EDT, local law enforcement, doppler radar and gauge reports

indicated thunderstorms produced heavy rain across the warned area.

Between 1.5 and 2.5 inches of rain have fallen. Flash flooding is

already occurring.



HAZARD...Flash flooding caused by thunderstorms.



SOURCE...Law enforcement reported.



IMPACT...Flash flooding of small creeks and streams, urban areas,

         highways, streets and underpasses as well as other poor

         drainage and low-lying areas.



Some locations that will experience flash flooding include...

  Penn Hills, Monroeville, Plum, West Mifflin, Murrysville,

  Wilkinsburg, Munhall, North Versailles, Swissvale, White Oak,

  Forest Hills, Wilkins Township, Duquesne, Turtle Creek, North

  Braddock, Pitcairn, Manor and Trafford.



Several roads were flooded across the area. Even though the rain has

ended, runoff from the earlier heavy rainfall could cause additional

flooding. This runoff was resulting in rapid creek rises along

Thompson Run, Turtle Creek, and Nine Mile Run.

Turn around, don't drown when encountering flooded roads. Most flood

deaths occur in vehicles.
