Daily News | Flood warning posted as ‘training’ thunderstorms pound Chesco
As expected, some strong thunderstorms popped up around the region late Saturday afternoon, particularly dousing southern Chester County,As much as 3 inches had fallen in areas near the Maryland border as of 6 p.m., with an additional 0.5 inches possible, the National Weather Service said.
Eric Hoeflich, a meteorologist with the weather service office in Mount Holly, said the heavy rains appear to be the result of “training,” a phenomenon in which storms keep forming over the same area. He added that there is “still a decent” chance that storms will become more widespread into the evening as a cold front approaches the region and mines all that shirt-soaking moisture in the air.
