    Slow-moving storms and heavy rain

What to look for
Slow-moving storms and heavy rain

Slow-moving storms that produce heavy rain are well-known flood-makers. The RainRadar can help you keep up with the flood threat in your neck of the woods.

Slow-moving storms can be especially dangerous because they remain over the same area for an extended period, dumping large amounts of rain and increasing the risk of flash flooding.

Today, storms will crawl across portions of the Northeast, bringing the risk of flooding to the region. The area most likely to see significant flooding today stretches from coastal New Jersey to southeast Massachusetts.

So what should you look for? First, check out the RainRadar. The RainRadar shows you where the rain is currently falling and where it's forecast to fall later in the day. You can also see the intensity of the rainfall with this feature. Darker blue and purple shades indicate heavy downpours.
