let's go to get the weather. we have a lot of stuff to tell you about. good morning, so many things going on with the remains of what was once a tropical storm nicole, coming at us in a couple different pieces, but a very, very potentially severe threatening situation for today. let's check it out. wind advisory, winds will probably increase in gusts, close to 45-miles per hour. a tornado watch for the area through 1:00 p.m. we have had a couple of tornado warnings in southern maryland and the eastern shore and these little impulses of energy could spin up at any point in time. a flash flood warning for the entire area until 12:30. rainfall averaging three to six inches. wait until you see what we have

had so far. flooding has been ebb tensive, to say the least. right now, i want to point out what we have. powerful doppler radar, we have a severe thunderstorm warning on top of everything else we have just mentioned. taking us to 9:30. we are watching heavy rain and the potential of gusty winds being carried to the surface. 50-60-miles per hour and if anything. some of these may actually help to spin off. we are looking southwest of bel aire for the he yes of the rainfall, showing up on maryland's most powerful doppler radar. look at this, east of glenn pushy. 930 and the chesapeake. the heaviest rain has been focused. annapolis, you have been clobbered extending toward shadyside. >> let's show you what we are

looking at. annapolis, closing in on five inches, you will do it before the half hour is done. same story -- 4.97. aberdeen catching up with 3 1/2 inches of rain. 3.55 in bel aire. off to the west side. look at glenn oak. 1 point 8-inches. west mintier, 1.43. which is respectable. that's why we give such a wide range of what we can expect. some of these places continue to get hit with the strings of really heavy moisture. one wave of low pressure in a stripping of low pressure systems that are along the frontal boundary ebb tended toward the south, tapping into the tropical moisture toward the bahamas. we were talking about a foot of rain in the carolinas. we could be catching a foot as all of this stuff comes in our direction and a very active jet stream waiting to spill chillier air behind it. here we go, basically, a look at the possibility of flooding

on the chesapeake bay with high tide at fort mchenry just before noon and just after midnight. those are the two major issues. 75 or temperature, but as the  heavy rain, three to six inches or more possible tornadoes mixed in. essentially, we'll have to deal with this threw the evening and overnight hours. we'll show you our time line forecast model in the next half hour. we expect to have some clearing by later on tomorrow with a high of 73 and a much chillier weekend. stay with us throughout the hour, back to you. >> thanks, justin. >> the rain is one thing, flooding is another. we are dealing with a soaker. that could mean wet basements and power out ans. >> live in middle river -- >> reporter: the rain is really coming down out here, megan. it has picked up in the last 30 minutes. we are here on eastern boulevard in middle river.

take a look at the roads. it is really coming down. you can see puddles and high standing water along here. this is what drivers are having to deal with. take a look at this. you might want to slow it down a bit. as you head out, today, you want to allow yourself extra time, all along eastern boulevard. we have seen puddles and standing water like this. there is also signs to warn drivers, but you really want to take it easy because you don't want to hydro plane. watch the stop lights. as you approach the stop lights, we have seen some power outages, be careful. be aware of your surroundings. be careful of fallen trees and power lines. you would want to swerve to avoid them. this is the scene in middle river, up and down the boulevard. we have noticed some standing water. we want to warn drivers to take it easy, watch your speed and

following distans, be careful out there. reporting live in middle river, cheree johnson. >> ed mcdonough is here. thanks for coming? >> thanks for having me. >> anybody by a bathtub could be in on this -- >> followed by extreme creek, river, those are the ones that will be impacted immediately. >> some people wake up and say "just a little rain." that's where the danger sets in. >> we have had almost five inches in arundell county. that's not a little rain. some tornado warnings in southern maryland and the eastern shore many those seem to be the big targets. >> take me into your office. what's going on? >> right now a dozen or so state agency and the red cross. we are ready to help any local emergency man anments office that may have needs or systems.

we are ready to help with that as soon as possible. help with transportation issues. >> reporter: is there anything we can do? >> people need to be prepared. if you see standing water, don't drive-thruent we about a swift river rescue. you put first responders at risk as well as yourself. >> what can we do at home? >> make sure you have a battery operated radio, listen to shows like this. take cover. >> what if we are trapped in a car. you don't want to go through two or feet of water. you want to stop and turn around. >> thanks for coming in. we'll be in touch, keep safe. megan, again, we are going to concentrate on the weather and traffic. >> thanks, jaime. >> we are working to keep you safe during severe weather like this. we have some tips to deal with tornadoes and flooding.

first and foremost, listen to radio and area television reports and the noaa radio for reports of flooding actually happening in your area. be prepared to evacuate at a moment's noticent have everything prepared to head for higher ground and stay there. stay away from floodwaters. do not try to drive-thru any sort of water. keep children out of the water, be sure you are especially cautious at night when it is harder to recognize a flood danger. >> since we are under a tornado watch, we want to make sure you are prepared for that. pick a safe room where you and your family can gather in the event of a tornado. this should be the lowest floor of your homes with no windows. affix your lawn furniture, anything that can be picked up by the wind. make sure you are always listening and watching for warnings. >> we'll put everything online.

since we started the program at 9:00, we have added an additional inch of rain in arundell county. we are basically four and three- quarters of an inch of rain. in addition to the heavy rainfall which extended up to baltimore county, closing in close to six inches, there is a tornado warning, including southern maryland and we have had a few of these that have not transpired. but the warns are often doppler radar indicated. which means there is rotation in the clouds, not making its way to the surface. we take our velocity scans. showing wind going away and towards the radar site, locked in close together, the possibility of rotation, that's the case right now. let's take this out of the 3d mode and bring it closer and it looks like between hills near

shores and annapolis, there maybe the possibility of getting rotation here. there may be a little rotation in these clouds. doesn't necessarily mean it will work its way towards the surface. we have this tornado warning, including southern maryland. we'll focus on arundell county, we have this storm near silver bay, as indicated. basically, the areas of concerns -- if you are in those locations, this is the time to turn up the volume on television so you can continue to hear us and go into an interior room in your roam. it would best be a room without windows or get into the bathtub because those walls would be reenforced. >> if you have a basement, now is the time to go there trees

are weakened from the drought we had this summer and all of the heavy rainfall, closing in on six inches, there is a possibility of debris across the region. >> let back this up. it appears the heaviest of the rainfall is near annapolis. it's not just about the rain, it is the possible rotation at cloud level. often times, with tropical systems and even though this is no longer a tropical storm, it has a lot of energy and a lot of rotation and it is coming at us in a few different pieces of energy and trying to work its way toward the north. these individual storms are moving to roughly 25-30-miles per hour. ground winds have not been tavon. all it takes is a funnel cloud to form anticipate drop to the surface to carry the strong winds down on towards the ground. it's about the heavy rain. we are highlighting velocity scan which looks inside of of

clouds and where the winds are moving away and toward the radar site. what i see is west of arnold with a possibility of rotation and no confirmation on the groundent that's the reason for this tornado warning. i wanted to make that very clear. we have had a few of these already and there are likely to be more. we don't expect strong tornadoes, ef1s, 60-70-miles an hour, enough to do some damage, but not absolute destruction. it is the fact that there is a lot of rotation in the clouds and a lot of energy with these storms. we have continued to watch them basically hugging the chesapeake bay. we have had amounts of 5 1/2 to 6 inches of rain just since midnight and there is a lot more to come, with these conveyor belts lined up, there are places that will get more rain with the rest of the area averaging an inch and a half to

two inches. widespread flooding. we'll have more rain throughout the day and into tonight. more on our forecast coming up in just a bit, stay tuned. back to you. >> thanks, justin. >> you have to be prepared in a situation like this, that means keep a radio with you, have batteries with you, listen to television and radio reports. listen for flood warnings, reports of flooding actually happening and be prepared to evacuate at a moment's notice and stay there. stay away from floodwaters. do not try to drive-thru water if you see ponding. especially at night, because it's harder to tell what is flooding and what is not. >> i want to make sure you are prepared, pick a safe room in your home where your family can gather. justin, you have been an advocate of getting into the bathtub where the plumbing is and also try to secure your

lawn furniture, trash cans, pick up anything that can be taken up by wind. finally, don't wait until you see a tornado. make sure you are listening. i heard you, the other day, say keep the tv real loud. make sure you can hear something and make sure you are safe. >> abc 2 news has a list of all of those things. we'll be right back.

>> thanks for staying with us this morning. we definitely have some breaking news going on. tornado warning in arundell county until 10:15. >> this is the third time this week. let's go over to justin to find out the latest. >> this is the impact of the remnants of tropical storm nicole trying to work its way up the coast. we are getting one of many

pieces of energy. we do this, first, tornado warning for 10:15. -- we have been watching most of the energy ride up the chesapeake bay and hug this side of the bay where they have had the heaviest of the rainfall. we have the u.s. navel academy, now over six inches of rainfall. we have had more than an inch of rain as we started our program. more than a half foot of rain since midnight and again, we have more of of the storm to come. we'll check out other locations. i want to point out, pasadena, 4.75 inches. still a respectable amount. we just went 4.98. we could probably clock five inches using this screen before we are done. wins have not been that strong. we are talking about a tornado

warning until 10:15ent we really have not pushed that muchy the way of strong winds are but there is a possibility that some rotation at cloud level can work its way into the funnel cloud at a 14-mile per hour wind at one location. just a quarter mile away request can quickly pick up 40- 60-mile per hour. now, we have five inches in pasadena. i told you we could do this while we were on the screen. we will show you maryland's most powerful doppler radar. we aring looking at a time lapse. annapolis. arnold. just the last two hours, ritchie highway. i want to highlight, what you are looking at, moving away from the radar site and that's where they are really locked in

close together. >> that's the reason why the national weather service has posted a tornado warning. this has not come out of this office, all watches and warnings are governed by the national weather service and they indicate there may be a possible tornado. i want to highlight some of the locations they have included -- the best thing to do is go to the lowest location in your home. if you are in amebule home or vehicle, try to find the best shelter in the interior location. these turn out to be weak twisters, ef20, ef1. that doesn't mean you are out of the woods. >> otherwise, a tornado watch for the rest of us.

heavy rain thebes tends into baltimore county. kingsville and glenn arm -- places getting extremely heavy rain from the same conveyor belt and across to the east side of the beltway. so, we'll check out some of the rainfall totals. it doesn't matter if you have three or six inches in your back backyard. that's enough to overstress the storm drains and other possibilities. like the report we had early on in annapolis, there may be some potential damage or destruction. with six inches of rain, i think that's a definite possible. please be careful. this is a very serious situation. we are not done by any stretch. this tornado warning extends until 10:15. we'll probably have more posted throughout the dayent and we'll

probably have extensive flooding. >> thanks, justin. >> we will stay with us until we know what is going on. meantime, if you are living in arundell county, and seeing anything, we would love to hear from you. give us a call. >> again, this is the time to go over our checklist, here, this is where you have to listen to your radio, listen to your tv reports and noah radio for any reports of flooding actually happening in your area. be prepared to get out at a mowment's notice and head for higher ground. stay away from floodwaters and of course, don't try to drive- thru them. you will come up on a lot of roads that will be floodsent do not try to drive-thru them. be ebb treatmently cautious at night, when it's harder to see the floodwaters. >> pick a safe room where you and your family can gather in the event of a tornado. you want one on the lowest

floor, if possible, with no windows. and try to secure lawn furniture or trash cans, anything that can be picked up by wind and hurt someone. finally, don't wait, listen and watch and find the safe room and turn the tv up. >> we are 30 minutes away from that expiring, the tornado. >> is this the same system that produced the warning earlier? >> maybe the same piece of energy, yes, we are watching this. >> some of these storms earlier 40-miles per hour, directional speed to the north and this storm looks a little slower, talking about 25-miles per hour, but yeah, we are watching stuff from the south passing to the north. but we had a tornado warning earlier that we were tracking to the northent this is another piece of 0 energy, but we'll track this one because that means eastern baltimore and hartford county could be next on the live as these things continue to track their way toward the north. we'll get back to it and back to the report in a few minutes.

we are back on the air because we have a tornado warning right now. it has been a busy, wild -- six inches of rain in some areas. >> six inches in some areas.

watchings and warnings all morning longent we have been running in between weather sets and lettings folks who own our internet know, we want to get right to justin and find out the latest situation. >> in these types of situations, we get tornado warns that never transpire into a tornado. there is alot of energy we can see inside of the clouds and never work their way down to the groundent that's the reason why we have to take each one individually seriously many there is a lot going on today. i want to point out under the tornado watch, you can see it over my head as well. we have that going into the afternoon. tornado warning light goes to -- actually expires -- until 10:15. in addition to that, these red shades, severe thunderstorm warning expiring at 10:00. in addition to that, we have

flash flood warnings that take us into the afternoon and wind advisories, here's the rainfall we have from the locations we have loaded since midnight. annapolis -- we started this show 9:00 with 4.8 to 4.9-inch. we have closing in on two two inches an hour. this stuff is rolling to the north. bel aire out of the edge of it, pretty heavy, still. glenn oak at 1.89. west mintier still over an inch and a half. most of it seems to be locked in around the bay. jet stream rolling to the north. i want to get out of the way so

i can highlight some of they rain in orange sectionsent western sections of hartford county. west of bel aire, we are watching places from jarrettsville and toward the south. this does include kingsville. this is rolling up and down route 1, hartford road, bel aire road and down through perry hall, we have this corner of the beltway over towards lake march be and the rose dale split. we are looking at a thunderstorm, eight miles south of shadyside. let's pull this back. another piece of energy. watching heavy rain. shadyside is south of route 50. this is the thunderstorm they are talking about. let's put that velocity scan in. as you can see, it appears to be some possible energy and rotation in those clouds. let's take you back toward

shadyside as we get out of the 3d mode. there is quick movement, but we are watching the particular cell toward the west, extended toward deal and chesapeake beach. this appears to be containing some energy and some rotation while heavier rains ebb tend back towards washington, d.c. one of the things to note with these particular events, we are talking about a tornado warning for archbishop rundell county, south of annapolis. this is all wrapping around one piece of energy that spills back here towards the west. we have the convoy belt coming from south to north. in between, there are little spins, little areas of low pressure, and between the spokes of energy like we have, right now. focusing on the area, maybe getting enhancement toward the chesapeake bayent as pull this back wider, you can see how the moisture extends -- it continues to get pounded. there is that rotationen there
