kroe . now, your nbc 10 first alert weather. >> right now at 11:00, it's the haves and the have nots when it comes to the rain. on the left is cape may county, where the rain has been falling for several hours now. on the right, in penns landing, still dry enough to roller blade. take a look at the nbc 10 radar

right now. you can see the heaviest rain is only hitting parts of the region right now. but we do expect more to fall overnight, and into tomorrow. nbc 10's drew smith will show us how the wet conditions are affecting people's plans at the shore. but let's begin with first alert meteorologist glenn "hurricane" schwartz. very different scenes across the area. still looking for possible flooding? >> right. parts of the area have already gotten several inches of rain. you can see how chaotic it is, kind of a weird radar map. and i'll tell you, we'll show you just why. now, one of the places that got hit hard was in berks county, near reading. one inch of rain in just 15 minutes. and so a flash flood warning in effect there until 1:30 in the morning. that's in berks county. now, on the other end of our area, southwestern delaware and us sussex county, and parts of

delaware beaches getting blasted with heavy rain. that is moving straight up to cape may, which has already been hit hard. then we have other heavy rain near vineland. then another area in the middle of delaware, the center of the low is here. the radar echos are moving in all sorts of different directions. like i said, it's kind of weird. very unusual. here's the hour-by-hour future cast. you can see the increased rain at the jersey shore. more from the west starting to come in toward daybreak. but it's still looking chaotic and not really well-organized. and that means it's not going to be widespread, heavy rain. and as we go through the day tomorrow, it will be scattered, rather than torrential all over the place. >> all right, glenn. we have seen a lot of wet weather on our live camera in cape may tonight, and that's led people hoping to enjoy a weekend at the shore dodging the rain

delaware as we go through the night tonight. and just north of dover, just south of middletown, some really heavy rain for hours after hour. the delaware beaches getting pounded, too. dewy, up to lewis, headed eastward toward cape may, which has already had several hours of rain. that cape may rain now into ocean city and going up to atlantic city, and then long beach island, we have other rain. this is coming in through south jersey. millville getting hit hard now. and so it's kind of scattered around. we had a heavy rain area go through berks county, and caused some flooding in the reading area. an inch of rain in just 15 minutes. and there's still tremendous rains back north of washington that we have to watch for the rest of the night. the amounts of rain so far, again, very, very scattered and chaotic. very little or nothing in a good

bit of our area. but over 4 inches in parts of southern delaware. 5.5 in chesapeake bay. 2.8 in reading. so when the rain hits, it can be really heavy. here's the future cast for the rest of the night. showing this area back to the west, coming in, but it's breaking up. it's kind of scattered around. so we can't get that consistent rain across any part of the area. there we are at 8:30 in the morning. so, yeah, it's wet to start the day tomorrow. but most of any heavy rain would still be well to the south. so i don't think there's going to be any kind of flood threat in our pennsylvania counties or in central new jersey or most of south jersey. it's going to be a wet start. it's going to be a cloudy day. it's going to be a cool day. but as far as the heaviest of the rain, that moves offshore fairly quickly during the day tomorrow. so it's going to be nicer on

sunday than on saturday. the amounts of rain from our latest computer models, again, showing very little now from the philadelphia area northward. look at that. and yet over 3 inches of rain in dover. and close to that in avalon. so we're seeing a tremendous contrast across the area as we go through the day tomorrow. and it's actually going to be a pretty nice day for the lehigh valley. at least partly sunny skies. and the jersey shore, not only rain, but we also have wind to deal with. so it's a nasty day there. sunday is much better, although it may be a little bit breezy, and on the cooler side. you can see how much nicer sunday is than saturday across the entire area. and in many of these places, it's mostly that morning rain. so the afternoon on sunday is going to be much better than the morning on saturday. again, sunday is a nice day.

monday and tuesday are sunny, as well. >> all right, glenn. and wake up with nbc 10 news today for the latest on the rain and any possible flooding. rosemary connors and first alert meteorologist crystal will be updating you starting at 5:00 a.m. a thief took this delaware county boy's bike. then he got a new one from a very unexpected place. see who came forward to right this wrong. whoa! you're not taking these. hey, hey, hey! you're not taking those. whoa, whoa! you're not taking that. come with me. you're not taking that. you're not taking that. you're not taking that. mom, i'm taking the subaru. don't be late. even when we're not there to keep them safe, our subaru outback will be.
