THROUGH THE MID-ATLANTIC AND NORTHEAST...

SUMMARY OF 1100 PM EDT...0300 UTC...INFORMATION
-----------------------------------------------
LOCATION...39.3N 79.7W
ABOUT 104 MILES...167 KM...NW OF CHARLOTTESVILLE VIRGINIA.
MAXIMUM SUSTAINED WINDS...20 MPH...32 KM/H
PRESENT MOVEMENT...ENE OR 75 DEGREES AT 28 MPH...45 KM/H
MINIMUM CENTRAL PRESSURE...1006 MB...29.71 INCHES


WATCHES AND WARNINGS
--------------------
FLASH FLOOD WARNINGS ARE CURRENTLY IN EFFECT ACROSS AREAS OF
CENTRAL APPALACHIANS AND THE MID-ATLANTIC. FLASH FLOOD AND FLOOD
WATCHES EXTEND ACROSS PORTIONS OF THE OHIO VALLEY...CENTRAL
APPALACHIANS AND NORTHWARD INTO PORTIONS OF THE COASTAL NORTHEAST.

FOR INFORMATION SPECIFIC TO YOUR AREA...INCLUDING POSSIBLE WATCHES
AND WARNINGS...PLEASE MONITOR PRODUCTS ISSUED BY YOUR LOCAL
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE OFFICE AT WWW.WEATHER.GOV.


DISCUSSION AND 48-HOUR OUTLOOK
------------------------------
AT 1100 PM EDT...0300 UTC...THE CENTER OF BILL WAS LOCATED NEAR
LATITUDE 39.3 NORTH...AND LONGITUDE 79.7 WEST. WHILE POST-TROPICAL
CYCLONE BILL STILL HAS SOME CYCLONIC CIRCULATION...IT IS NOT AS
DISCERNIBLE AS IT MOVES OVER THE HIGHER ELEVATIONS OF WEST
VIRGINIA.  RADAR IMAGERY SHOWS CONVECTION TO THE SOUTH OF THE LOW
BUT IT IS MUCH LESS ORGANIZED THAN IT HAS PREVIOUSLY BEEN DURING
THE PAST FEW DAYS.  SURFACE OBSERVATIONS HAVE REPORTED UP TO 35
MPH WIND GUSTS NEAR THE CENTER.  OUTER RAINBANDS CONTINUE TO MOVE
AHEAD OF THE CENTER INTO THE MID-ATLANTIC AND PORTIONS OF THE
NORTHEAST.  THE MOST IMPRESSIVE PRECIPITATION ASSOCIATED WITH THE
REMNANTS OF BILL WAS MOVING THROUGH THE WASHINGTON D.C./BALTIMORE
METRO AREA.  THIS LINE OF STORMS WAS PRODUCING MODERATE TO HEAVY
RAINFALL AND ALSO HAD A HISTORY OF PRODUCING FLASH
FLOODING...STRONG WINDS...AND EVEN TORNADOES.  LIGHT TO MODERATE
RAINFALL IS ALSO BEGINNING TO MOVE INTO NORTHERN PENNSYLVANIA AND
NEW YORK.  THE REMNANTS OF BILL ARE EXPECTED TO CONTINUE MOVING
EAST-NORTHEASTWARD INTO THE MID-ATLANTIC DURING THE EARLY HOURS OF
SUNDAY MORNING AND WILL TRACK ACROSS THE NORTHEAST COASTLINE ON
SUNDAY.  THE REMNANTS OF BILL COULD BRIEFLY RESTRENGTHEN ON SUNDAY
AS IT BECOMES EXTRATROPICAL OVER THE NORTHERN MID-ATLANTIC AND
SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND COAST.

MAXIMUM SUSTAINED WINDS ARE NEAR 20 MPH...32 KM/H...WITH HIGHER
GUSTS.

MINIMUM CENTRAL PRESSURE IS 1006 MB...29.71 INCHES.


HAZARDS
-------
RAINFALL...BILL IS EXPECTED TO PRODUCE RAINFALL TOTALS OF 2 TO 3
INCHES OF RAIN FROM THE CENTRAL APPALACHIANS...MID-ATLANTIC
REGION...AND NORTHWARD INTO COASTAL NEW ENGLAND.  THESE RAINS WILL
CONTINUE TO ENHANCE THE THREAT FOR FLASH FLOODING...PARTICULARLY
IN REGIONS WHICH ARE ALREADY SATURATED FROM PREVIOUS HEAVY
RAINFALL.

3:53 PM ADT Saturday 20 June 2015
Special weather statement in effect for:

• Fredericton and Southern York County

Heavy rain likely Sunday and Monday.
A low pressure system will approach from the Great Lakes on Sunday while another low originating from the Southern United States approaches the Maritimes. There is some uncertainty in exactly how these systems will merge but it appears the southern low will draw tropical moisture from the south and with it the potential for a heavy rainfall event. At this time it appears rain will begin over Western New Brunswick near noon on Sunday and over Eastern New Brunswick later in the afternoon. Rain will continue Sunday night and into Monday as the low moves over Nova Scotia. Total rainfall amounts exceeding 50 millimetres are possible with this system before the rain tapers later on Monday.
The public is advised to monitor future forecasts and warnings as warnings may be required.

Please monitor the latest forecasts and warnings from Environment Canada at www.weather.gc.ca.

:53 PM ADT Saturday 20 June 2015
Special weather statement in effect for:

• Halifax Metro and Halifax County West

Heavy rain likely Sunday and Sunday night.
A low pressure system will approach from the Great Lakes on Sunday while another low originating from the Southern United States approaches the Maritimes. There is some uncertainty in exactly how these systems will merge but it appears the southern low will draw tropical moisture from the south and with it the potential for a heavy rainfall event. At this time it appears rain will begin over Western Nova Scotia early Sunday afternoon and spread eastward. Rain will continue Sunday night and into Monday morning as the low moves over Nova Scotia. Total rainfall amounts exceeding 50 millimetres are possible with this system before the rain tapers later on Monday.
The public is advised to monitor future forecasts and warnings as warnings may be required.
