Concerning what’s over C NJ and headed this way too. 

That’s what I’m worried about. The basement apartment below me flooded with 5’ of water last year with the 8” rain event. It wasn’t a good scene.

This is an extremely efficient rain event like we have seen the last decade with increasing reoccurrence times. Radar often doesn’t do justice to the rates in the center of these plumes.
