Tue May 06 08:10:00 UTC 2025: ## Flash Flood Warning Issued for South-Central Pennsylvania
**Harrisburg, PA [Date]** – The National Weather Service (NWS) has issued a Flash Flood Warning for parts of south-central Pennsylvania, effective until 12:45 a.m. Tuesday. Heavy thunderstorms have already dumped 1 to 2 inches of rain across the affected area, with an additional 1 to 2 inches expected.
The NWS warns of ongoing and imminent flash flooding in small creeks and streams, urban areas, highways, streets, underpasses, and other low-lying areas. Residents are urged to exercise extreme caution, as flash flooding poses a significant danger.
“Turn around, don’t drown,” emphasized NWS officials, highlighting the risk of driving through flooded roads. Most flood-related fatalities occur in vehicles. Nighttime driving presents additional challenges due to reduced visibility. People are advised to avoid low water crossings in hilly terrain, which are especially hazardous during heavy rainfall.
Residents are strongly advised to seek alternate routes and avoid attempting to cross flooded roads. For up-to-date weather information, including interactive radar and active weather alerts, residents can visit [Insert Link to NWS Website Here].
