Flood Watch for tonight, Thursday April 30
How are the winds up there? On the Eastern Shore of MD the winds are steady at about 25 to 30 mph with gusts a lot higher than that. It has been awhile since I have seen the patio furniture (and even the grill) get pushed from one side of the deck to the other side. It started late last night and it isn't showing any signs of stopping any time soon.
weather.gov says 1.5 to 2.5 inches of rain, but doesn't mention wind.
OTOH, PSEG sent out a high wind warning, with gusts up to 50mph
