The line seems to be holding together as it moves east. There are more downpours behind the main line and we will watch to see if additional strong cells develop as we head into the evening rush hour drive. Rainfall amounts of several inches could occur in a very short period of time under some of the stronger thunderstorms. Flash flood warnings are up now for a small portion of Southeastern Pennsylvania.
