The National Weather Service has issued a Flash Flood Warning for Philadelphia and surrounding areas as heavy rainfall creates dangerous flooding conditions.
Officials are urging residents to avoid traveling unless they are fleeing a flooded area or are under an evacuation order. Drivers are advised to stay off the roads, as floodwaters can rise quickly and make travel hazardous.
Philadelphia residents in flood-prone neighborhoods can monitor real-time water levels in nearby creeks through an online flood-tracking system. The interactive website provides live data from stream gauges, helping residents stay informed about flooding conditions. The website is available at flood-monitoring.phila.gov.
