Aerial Flood Warning issued for Baltimore County

NOTTINGHAM, MD—As Tropical Storm Isaias exits the Maryland area, the National Weather Service has issued an Aerial Flood Warning for portions of Baltimore County.

The Aerial Flood Warning will remain in effect until 6 p.m. and replaces the Flash Flood Warning.

At 12:30 p.m. on Tuesday, reporting gauges indicated that rain had ended but streams were still elevated with several flooded areas.

Larger streams such as the Little Patuxent and Patuxent Rivers were still rising. Therefore, a Flood Warning will continue through the afternoon, replacing the earlier Flash Flood Warning.

Turn around, don’t drown when encountering flooded roads. Most flood deaths occur in vehicles.

A Flood Warning means that flooding is imminent or occurring. All residents should take necessary precautions immediately.
