    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.

Significant flooding possible from coastal New Jersey to southeastern Massachusetts today.

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.

Also, the Weather & Radar app's advanced weather alert system gives you details on rain totals and rain duration.

The image shows an intense tropical cyclone over the western Pacific, east of Taiwan and the Philippines. The centre of the system is depicted as a light purple and white vortex with a clearly visible eye, surrounded by a ring of red and orange areas indicating the strongest wind speeds. A white arrow marks the typhoon’s predicted track towards the north-west, in the direction of Taiwan. To the west of the storm lie the Philippines, with the cities of Manila and Cebu; to the north of these lies Taiwan, with Taipei. Further west, the Chinese coast, including Hong Kong, and parts of Vietnam can be seen. The coloured wind map shows predominantly green areas outside the storm’s core, indicating significantly weaker winds. White streamlines illustrate the typhoon’s anti-clockwise circulation in the Northern Hemisphere. The highest wind speeds are concentrated around the eye of the cyclone.
