Episode narrativeepisode_narrativePennsylvania State Route 12 in Reading was closed for more than three hours during the evening after heavy rains caused almost 2 feet of water to accumulate on the highway at the height of rush hour. Both the eastbound and westbound lanes were flooded at the River Road exit, and about a quarter-mile stretch of the westbound lanes at the Schuylkill Avenue overpass were also under water. One car was trapped under the Schuylkill Avenue overpass for about three hours as towing crews struggled with it in water up to its wheel wells. The River Road entrance ramp to Pennsylvania State Route 12 also was closed for more than three hours when roadway flooding made it impassable at about 6 p.m. EDT. Roadway flooding was also reported on U.S. Business Route 222 and Pennsylvania State Route 61. Flooding along Pennsylvania State Routes 61 and 12 extended into Muhlenberg Township. Storm totals included 1.47 inches in Reading and 1.39 inches at the Reading Regional Airport.
