Washington, DC, flash flood watch: Which key areas are under threat
A strong storm has already struck the Mid-Atlantic and the Southeast on Wednesday and is threatening to cause severe thunderstorms and flash flooding for over 27 million people in Washington, D.C. As severe storms threaten the East Coast, Texas and New Mexico are recovering from devastating floods, with significant casualties reported and FEMA assisting in recovery efforts.(AP) National Weather Service (NWS) reported flash flood warnings are currently active for Washington, D.C., Maryland, and parts of Virginia until 8:45 PM ET. 'A Flood Watch has been issued for locations to the east of the Blue Ridge for Wednesday afternoon into Wednesday evening,' NWS Baltimore-Washington posted on X. Rainfalls of 2 to 3 inches on an hourly basis are predicted in some parts. Flooding would occur quickly, considering the fact that the soil would already be saturated due to recent downpours. Storm drains are an extreme threat, causing flash floods on the streets of a park such as D.C. ALSO READ| White House under tornado threat?

Leesburg Warrenton Fredericksburg La Plata Lexington Park The NWS has also issued a Severe Thunderstorm Watch for the broader Mid-Atlantic region through midnight. Officials say the greatest threats are wind gusts up to 70 mph, hail, and brief tornadoes, like the one spotted in northern D.C. on Wednesday evening. 'Flash flooding is also a major concern with these storms that are expected to produce very heavy downpours,' the NWS warned. On Thursday, more severe storms are expected to develop across North and South Carolina, bringing with them fresh risks of flooding and wind damage. Notably, authorities have already reported over 120 deaths in Texas alone, and 172 people went missing in the flash flood disasters. On 4 July, Kerr County, the affected locality with the largest number of deaths, witnessed a horrific surge in the height of rivers, where more than 40 people lost their lives, 36 of them were children.

Filled To The Brim With Heavy Rain
Covering period of Thursday 3rd - Tuesday 8th July We're in the thick of it again today (Thursday), with a slew of Heavy Rain Warnings and Watches, Severe Thunderstorm Watches, Strong Wind Watches, and a Heavy Snow Watch. The hits just keep coming with these quick moving systems, it's giving us weather whiplash. In amongst the widespread rain, the top half of the North Island is on the lookout for downpours with Severe Thunderstorm Watches from this afternoon. Commute time in Auckland is looking busiest, so it's a good idea to head home earlier if you can. MetService Meteorologist Katie Hillyer advises, 'The localised downpours are the real risk we are highlighting with the Severe Thunderstorm Watches; people shouldn't be fooled by the lack of thunder and lightning. It's a good time for people to turn on notifications in the app for any Severe Thunderstorm Warnings that may be issued for their area'. Damaging winds are also possible for Northland and Auckland, with a background of strong winds as per the Strong Wind Watches, combined with the potential of gusts between 90-110km/hr in any Severe Thunderstorms. As the heavy rain band moves off, these areas are not completely out of the woods, with heavy showers and possible thunderstorms and hail on Friday and Saturday. It will take until Sunday and into Monday for these areas to get some settled weather, even if it's not for as long as we're hoping. Heavy Rain Watches have also been issued for the Wellington and Kapiti regions for this afternoon and evening. Rain is setting in the Tasman, Nelson and Marlborough regions as they are under their Heavy Rain Warnings until 7pm today. 'While accumulations are not as high as last week, the saturated starting conditions will play a huge part in the impacts we will see, so it is important to not get caught comparing numbers to last week', says Hillyer. 'We advise on the weather, but local emergency management services and councils know their areas best, so people are encouraged to also pay close attention to their messaging and advice', she continues. After this rainband moves off today, showers, some possibly heavy, continue into Friday and early Saturday before settled weather pushes in. A different flavour in the south of the country, with a Heavy Snow Watch for Southern Canterbury High Country, Queenstown Lakes District, and Central Otago where down to 600 metres, snow may approach Warning criteria, but those down to 400 metres may get a fresh dusting today. Many road passes have the risk of snow settling, so travellers should keep up with messages from NZTA Waka Kotahi. Dunedin and North Otago are also under a Heavy Rain Watch from 3pm-3am, before gradually settling into the weekend.
