DRIVEN DEEP MOIST SUBTROPICAL PLUME EAST AND WAS NOW ALIGNED FROM

BEST MOISTURE TRANSPORT NOW INTO COASTAL NJ AND S NEW ENGLAND...SO NOT
EXPECTING AN INCREASE IN PRECIP IN PA AND MOST OF NY STATE TO WARRANT ANY
SIGNIFICANT FF THREAT AND ONLY MARGINAL THREAT AND MORE FOR LOCALIZED
URBAN FLOODING POINTS EAST OF NY-PA REST OF TONIGHT.  WILL CONTINUE TO
MONITOR SE NY AND NJ NEXT FEW HRS WHERE THERE COULD STILL BE UP TO 0.5"
