| Episode narrativeepisode_narrative | Heavy rain associated with the remnants of Tropical Storm Cindy fell across southeastern Pennsylvania on the morning of the 8th. The rain itself started during the late evening of the 7th and ended during the afternoon of the 8th. Storm totals averaged around two inches. The heavy rain caused poor drainage and roadway flooding, but did not fall in a concentrated burst. Thus no serious stream or river flooding was reported except for the East Branch of the Brandywine Creek in Chester County. The combination of the heavy rain and northeast winds gusting around 20 to 30 mph knocked down a few weak trees and limbs and caused power outages. In the Lehigh Valley, about 4,600 homes and businesses lost power for a few hours because of downed limbs. In Montgomery County, in Lower Gwynedd Township, a downed tree forced the closure of U.S. Route 309 for five hours.Specific storm totals included 2.47 inches in Eagleville (Montgomery County), 2.34 inches in Perkasie (Bucks County), 2.09 inches in Pottstown (Montgomery County), 2.01 inches in Neshaminy Falls (Bucks County), 1.98 inches in Washington's Crossing (Bucks County), 1.94 inches in Bernville (Berks County), 1.93 inches at the Philadelphia International Airport, 1.85 inches in Bechtelsville (Berks County), 1.71 inches in Reading (Berks County), 1.65 inches in Forks Township (Northampton County) and 1.61 inches at the Lehigh Valley International Airport. The remnants of Tropical Storm Cindy moved from near Atlanta, Georgia at 8 a.m. EDT on the 7th northeast to near Washington, D.C. at 8 a.m. EDT on the 8th, lower Delaware at 2 p.m. EDT on the 8th and about 100 miles east of Atlantic City at 8 p.m. EDT on the 8th. |
