We have greater concern about an ongoing risk for a tornado possibly into areas around Monmouth County and parts of Ocean County of New Jersey.
00:07
So here we have Ocean County. I'm going to switch over to the high-res radar data out of Fort Dix, New Jersey.
00:13
And this is going to give us a close view from south to north from the radar source to the storm itself about eight or nine miles.
00:19
And as I switch over to the velocity scan, there is still some rotation.
00:24
You can see this is not the picture-perfect, obvious tornado threat that we often see in the plains.
00:30
And there's nothing perfect about a tornado. We don't want to celebrate any of this.
00:33
But sometimes it's easier to track these when we have certain indicators.
00:37
And you can see the red against the green over Jackson there in the northern part of Ocean County.
00:42
This also includes a little bit of southern Monmouth County near and south of Freehold Township tornado warning in these areas.
00:48
So that's the greatest risk for a possible tornado here into the area very close to Jackson, New Jersey.
00:53
Just a hint of outbound wind, strong inbound.
00:56
We have a lot of reports of trees, wires down, road closures.
00:59
I'm going to turn the reports on here.
01:01
You have tens of thousands without power now into parts of the northeast, Maryland and Pennsylvania.
01:06
Roxborough there with flooding on the Schuylkill Expressway, I-76 westbound.
01:11
That's a bad spot for traffic issues this time of the day.
01:15
So, again, this is on the Schuylkill Expressway near City Line Avenue there with lane restriction
01:22
because of high water on the road also flash flooding in other areas near Middletown Township in Delaware County.
