Tomorrow. We have those heavy rains moving from south to north. We may get another band coming in later this evening with some really heavy rain, but then things may taper off a bit after that. Latest on the rain totals and also the latest on joaquin coming up in just a few minutes, but were also having meteorologist Brittney Shipp with more on whats going on. Thats right. We have a network through weather underground, so lets take a live look right now and show you how the rainfall totals are stacking up. They look like they are the heaviest amount of rain in the central and southern parts of delaware, so theres a closer look at some of the amounts you can see anywhere between two to three inches is generally the rains. We have some areas that are seeing closer to five inches in the southern parts of delaware, so this is a closer look at bay vista. This helps us pin point your neighborhood, showing exactly how much rain has fallen. 2. 23 inches in bay vista, well zoom up to cape may, close to an inch of rain since yesterday. Half an inch in Ocean View Resort and right up the coast here, 82,. 82 in sands point, inch and a half in bayville and so rainfall totals show us the big picture over the entire area, not just the shore and that shows anywhere from one to two inches near philadelphia, stretching up to the lehigh valley, the poconos. Bullseye has been to the south of philadelphia, this is going to be closer to the central and southern parts of delaware. Thats where weve seen the most rain falling and were going to see more rain into the rest of tonight and thats include in our coastal Flood Warning, which will stay in effect until sunday at 6 00 p. M. , so thats going to affect cape may to Atlantic City and most of our beaches in delaware. And our concern is that our wind speeds are still going to be gusting up to 55 Miles Per Hour, were going to see rough surf, our waves anywhere between six to ten feet and this stays in effect until sunday at 6 00 p. M. Coming up, a closer look at Hurricane Joaquin and whats in store as we head into the rest of the weekend. Brittney, thanks. There is a series weather situation going on at the jersey shore today. You heard brittney talk about it, glenn talk about it. Massive waves sent ocean water flowing down streets in Atlantic Citys inland section. The streets quickly turned to rivers as water from already swollen back bays overflowed. More rain is on the way, too, with major flooding expected tomorrow. Our crews have been looking at the impact of coastal flooding up and down the jersey shore. Our Team Coverage continues now with nbc 10s drew smith, who is live in cape may county. Drew . Reporter yeah, were in central avenue, halfway in between the bay and the ocean here in seattle city, but you can take a look at the street here. Heres somebody trying to drive on this right now, but it actually gets pretty deep out there. You can see one of those cars getting close to being underwater down there. It is actually surprising, because at high tide it wasnt as bad as it is here now. This kind of shows you theres been poor drainage all day out here. The water really has nowhere to go, so here in the middle of the island theres still a lot of flooding problems. Several other streets are like this right now. Im going to show you they dont have police out here, they dont have the manpower to keep the streets closed off, so they have the signs here that say roads flooded. That means you should not be out here, because theres a possibility of you getting stuck. I did see a woman having to get towed out about a half hour ago, older woman who had some eye work done, couldnt really see, so it shows you how dangerous it can get pretty quickly. The flooding remaining well past high tide here. Drew smith, nbc 10 news. Thank you, drew. Jack marquel has declared what he calls a limited state of emergency for sussex county. The state is warning people who live in floodprone areas to take precautions and to evacuation if necessary. Drivers also need to be on the lookout for high waters on the roads. This was a scene on Savannah Road earlier today. Many others had to close due to flooding and they are urging drivers not to go through these areas. Lets face it, we havent seen damage like this today, but this storm from four months ago could have an impact on our current weather threat. Cydney long joins us live in Washington Township to explain. Cydney . Reporter well, keith, i can tell you the june 23rd storm may be three and a half months in the rearview mirror, but for communities like this one, they havent fully picked up the pieces, not all the businesses have reopened and not every home owner has fully fastened up. Not only the trees, but the power poles may right now be weaker because of june. Public works crews in Washington Township arent just getting a jump on this weekends nasty dose of weather. They are still trying to gain ground on the devastation of the june 23rd storm by removing trees that could quickly crash and crumble. The severity of the storm from june really put a damper on things, put us back about three months. Reporter crews worked today where significant wind gusts can and will do damage. We still are concerned with the saturated ground with the amount of rain that were getting, with any precarious trees that happen to still be leaning from the storm from june. Reporter businesses like the golden luck motel, which had its roof ripped off in the june storm, have yet to recover or reopen, and in hard hit greenwich township, the mayor oversees a giant pump to prevent the flooding in his community, where residents and businesses are still picking up the pieces and weary about this weekends wild and wet weather. In camden county, dispatchers who responded to more calls in six hours during the june storm compared to three days of hurricane sandy, are fully staffed and say dont think because were not on the coast were spared. Raining will cause the trees to weaken, come down, power lines down, things of that nature. Very important for vehicles not to drive through areas of water, even though it looks like it may be, because it only takes a few inches to float a car. Reporter and communities like greenwich, gloucester township, Washington Township, all tell me hurricane or not they have all hands on deck, police, ems, and fire ready to respond as necessary all weekend long. Live, cydney long, nbc 10 news. A viewer in Atlantic County took this video on his phone today. You can hear the wind howling and see the waves crashing on to the docks.

Investigators say theyve recovered seven weapons from the gunmans house and six more from the campus of umpqua Community College. He has been identified as chris harper mercer. Officials say all of the weapons were purchased legally. Harper mercer killed nine people and injured another nine at the school in roseburg before officers killed him. Investigators discovered a long note detailing his philosophy of hate, but they still do not have a motive. Im very lucky. Some people didnt make it out of there. I just pray that their families are okay, theyll be able to cope. The names of the victims have not yet been released. Today the u. S. Army revealed the gunman flunked out of basic training back in 2008. An Army Spokesperson did not reveal why he was discharged. Have a look at this now, the coast guard shot this video of the rescue last night near haiti. A 200foot cargo ship started to sink in the atlantic. A coast guard helicopter found the 12 crew members clinging to a raft. Meanwhile, the search continues for a cargo ship that went missing as joaquin hit the bahamas. Theres been no contact with the ship since thursday, but 33 people are onboard. And heres a view right now of Hurricane Joaquin from space. Astronaut scott kelly posted this new photo to his twitter account this morning. Hes aboard the International Space station. Kerry sanders is in nassau with the latest on the conditions in the bahamas. Right now it is a waiting game to get the assessment of damage from those islands that have already been hit. The small islands that have a population of about 60 people, san salvador, crooked island, all areas that have, before the hurricane hit, already experienced some problems because of the coastal flooding that preceded the arrival of joaquin. Now because of the Power Outages and the lack of communication, the authorities here in the bahamas did not have any specific hard information on how the damage is. They expect because this hurricane is moving so slowly it could take a day or so before they actually get a full report on how bad it is. Now remember, Hurricane Joaquin is moving about 3 miles an hour, so it will take some time before it passes the bahama chain, 700 islands, 1,000 keys, but because its such a big area, not all islands will be hit, including where i am here in nassau. There will be some bad weather here, but nothing like the hurricane so many people have had to go through on those small islands. In the bahamas in nassau, kerry sanders, nbc news. Destruction, also flooding, too. Brittney shipp joins us now. Looks like its better for us now. It is better for us. This is something we said wed continue to update you every day. The latest updates look promising into the weekend and early next week. Its going to turn away from our coastline, but we are still dealing with other situations, even apart from the hurricane, and thats all of the strong wind and rains moving into our area, especially right along the shore. Well start off with some of our cameras, this is cape may. You can see how the surface, well fly you down to a few more beach locations and shore locations. This is ocean city. Rough surf expected into the rest of tonight and really throughout most of the weekend. We have a coastal Flood Warning thats going to stay in effect until sunday night, so its a cold, windy, and rainy day. And this started way earlier today and just continuing. You can see all the moisture coming up from the south, so as you get ready to head home or out tonight, well be dealing with these conditions into the rest of tonight and even the start of your weekend. Closer look at philadelphia right now, light rain coming down. We have a few heavy pockets mainly in the central and southern parts of burlington county, closer to woodland. Well fly you around here, also show you near manchester, moderate downpours, same thing closer to cape may and mays landing and thats going to be the trend into tonight. In fact, its going to pick up in intensity closer to 11 00 p. M. Going over some of our rainfall totals, it shows the bullseye for this system right now, dover, central, and southern parts of delaware where we picked up anywhere between four to even five inches. Very isolated areas there where you see the reds, thats where weve seen the heaviest amounts of precipitation. If youre closer to philadelphia, closer to one to two inches. On top of all this, dealing with strong wind speeds moving in from the northeast, so for parts of our area, thats a strong onshore flow, thats contributing to some of the coastal flooding weve been seeing. Wind gusts are up to 36 Miles Per Hour for philadelphia, up to 39 in Atlantic City. Up to 40 Miles Per Hour in georgetown, 33 in wildwood, and this is going to continue as we go into the rest of tonight, into tomorrow, and into sunday. So youll notice our wind gusts could get up to 55 Miles Per Hour, and thats going to push more of the water onshore. So this is the main concern for us as we go into the rest of tonight. Definitely as we head into tomorrow and even into sunday. So again, strong wind speeds, still a concern for us on top of all the heavy rain, on top of the high tides. For rehoboth into tonight, closer to midnight, another round of high tide, same thing for tomorrow afternoon. High tide closer to cape may 12 32 a. M. Saturday and 12 58 p. M. Well take you over now to Atlantic City, and again, midnight and then once again as we get into sunday, 12 59 a. M. And 1 21 p. M. So the coastal Flood Warning stays in effect until sunday at 6 00 p. M. Our concerns will be those really strong onshore gusts up to 55 Miles Per Hour, rough surf is expected the entire weekend, so you want to stay out of the water. Weve seen a few surfers trying it out, but you definitely want to use caution. Cold and wet into the rest of tonight. Youll notice our future cast shows another round of heavier rain is going to move through closer to 9 00 p. M. And then once again its going to start to transition northward so the heaviest rain will be over philadelphia. Thats going to be closer to midnight. Thats going to also affect to the north and west. Saturday morning, thats the big question as were gearing up for our weekend plans. We are going to continue to see below average temperatures, as well as another round of rain as we push into most of saturday. And you can see everythings going to be a lot more spotty for us into saturday and sunday mostly cloudy skies, things drying out. The heaviest rain has either moved through, plus another heavy round tonight. By the time we get to the weekend, more showers, sunday is going to be isolated showers, mostly cloudy skies, especially as we get into sunday afternoon and evening. So thats good. Now apart from everything i mentioned, we have Hurricane Joaquin. So still a category 3 right now, and what were going to start to see with this path is its going to continue to shift to the north and then turn away to the northeast. Thats good news for us as we go into the weekend and into next week. So we are still dealing with that coastal flooding, thats our main concern in your sevenday forecast. 56 degrees will be the high as we head into saturday. Sunday 63. We start to warm up and dry things out heading into next week. Take a look at this, gentlemen, start your umbrellas. Thats right, they needed them today at the monster mile in dover. All nascar track activities were cancelled because of the heavy rain brittney was talking about, but fans hope to see racing at some point. Many want to see jeff gordon on the track one last time.

His fans hope the weather allows him to go for one more on sunday. First time i saw him win his race and he had tears coming down his eyes, i was hooked. Sad, last time ill get to see him at dover.

Reporter don brown started both at georgia and a florida high school. He was so talented, he was offered a football scholarship to play for miami. His Favorite High School memory helps explain why. One of the corners were talking, and they told the media, you know, Dominic Brown the best receiver in the state and we got the best corner in the state and i think i put up around 250 on them by the third quarter. Friday night lights was a successful movie and show here on nbc, but cameron rupp actually lived the lights, playing in plano, texas, rupp had an offer from texas to be a linebacker. He did attend texas, but instead played baseball. His High School Football memories are among his favorite. We went 150, 140, i think, and beat the brains out of everybody. Baseball worked out for them, though, right . Cant look back. The rain is causing many cancellations when it comes to sports.

This is nbc 10 news first alert weather. We continue now with a live look from our cape may camera. The jersey shore has been pounded today with high winds and high water. But there may be good news when it comes to Hurricane Joaquin. More models show it moving away from the east coast. Our nbc 10 weather team is gathering all the information you need. Lets check in with chief meteorologist glenn hurricane schwartz. Glenn, what do people need to know about this alert . Were letting people know about this heavy rain and these gusty winds and the coastal flooding especially. Thats the main danger. There is water in the streets, especially near the shore and some of the low lying communities, and that is a danger. And its going to continue to be that way during every high tide as we head up through the weekend. In the meantime, the rest of us just get wet and cold and its windy. It is a nasty day. You can see a little bit of a break in parts of virginia coming up, so its not going to rain continuously all night, but were not going to get buried like the folks in the south and North Carolina are going to. Were gusting up to 40 miles an hour now in philadelphia, with this northeast wind, same story in georgetown and delaware. Weve seen gusts as high as 50 miles an hour there. Some of that heavier rain that may be coming up later on during the evening, but as we head towards morning its going to become more on the scattered varietiment and so its not going to be continuous. Heres joaquin, which has been a continuous threat to the bahamas, its just been spinning around for two, three days now, but it is finally started turning to the north. This path that its taken, meandering for days. Its now category 3, moving north at 7 miles an hour. And the projection continues to be towards the northeast over this warm water in the purple and the red, thats warm enough to sustain a hurricane, so its still going to be a hurricane probably even into monday. But now were going to watch and see how close it comes to the east coast, because the closer it comes, the stronger the winds and the worse the flooding is going to happen at the coast. Well, some of the models have it going to the north, some have it going already to the northeast, which hasnt happened already, so were going to have to keep an eye on this and make sure there arent any other changes. Now lets go to meteorologist Brittney Shipp with more on this rain falling. Thats right. Weve seen a lot of rainfall the past 24 to 36 hours. Some of your rainfall totals. Ill paint a picture for you, show you whos gotten the most rain out of our entire area and its going to be closer to the central and southern parts of delaware, even closer to salem county, but for philadelphia, the suburbs, lehigh valley, the poconos, those areas only getting about one inch, maybe an inch and a half. Other areas youll notice where its yellow highlighted here, thats closer to two inches, two and a half inches. Where you start to see the orange and the red, youre pushing closer to three inches, four inches of rainfall. Well start with philadelphia and you can see right along the philadelphia area, close to one inch. Chester, 1. 3 inches. Closer to morristown, 1. 2 inches. Miserable day with the wind speeds and chilly temperatures. Closer to farmington, 6. 3 inches. Everywhere else in the southern part of delaware, down to ocean view, anywhere between three to five inches has fallen. Were still monitoring a coastal Flood Warning due to the very strong wind speed, the onshore flow thats helping push more water onshore. Wind gusts up to about 55 Miles Per Hour, rough surf, and again this continues all the way until sunday at 6 00 p. M. So coming up ill have a Hurricane Joaquin update for you, your eagles forecast, and more details on your weekend rain. Keith . Looking forward to that.

He says the water didnt get nearly this high during yesterdays first round of flooding, and is worried about another two days of this. When was the last time you saw this bad . When it was sandy. Reporter already swollen back bays also overflowed for the second straight day, as strong, persistent northeast wind pushed in even more water, toppled trees, and knocked out power. Flooded today, wasnt flooded here yesterday. Surprised these cars are going through it. Reporter scott bush lives along dorset avenue in ventnor.

Tonight, Hurricane Joaquin appears to be headed out to sea, but its still expected to cause major problems for the east coast. This is video of some of the flooding residents saw today along the coast of North Carolina. Nbcs jay gray is live for us n kitty hawk. What are conditions like down there . Reporter strong wind throughout the day, as well as a heavy surf and rain. Rain let up just for a bit now, but will continue throughout the day as so many here continue to watch joaquin, while bracing for what forecasters say could be historic flooding. From the carolinas through the new england coast, preparations continue, concerns are growing. Everybodys scared. You just dont know. Reporter while the latest tracking does show Hurricane Joaquin turning away from the eastern seaboard, dozens of communities there will not escape the dangerous effects of the storm. Heavy surf, violent rip currents, and a soaking rain in areas already dealing with way too much water right now. I cannot stress enough while this storm isnt likely to make landfall in North Carolina, the heavy rain will cause problems around the state. Reporter in the carolinas, cars and roads have already been swallowed by flood waters after meteorologists call a rex block, a High Pressure hovering over low pressure, locking it in place and dumping heavy rain. Now rain from joaquin will be added to the mix, creating a dangerous mess. Water kills people and we have to be extremely careful from the mountains to the coast. Reporter crews along the shoreline are piling up sand, building berms to try and stem part of the multistate effort to deal with multiple storm systems that will continue to be a threat through early next week. Yeah, you know, heavy rain expected to continue across the region for the next three to four days and that includes communities already dealing with flooding right now. Thats the latest live here in kitty hawk. Back to you, keith, denise . While youre with us, weve already seen mandatory evacuations in North Carolina. Should we expect anymore . Yeah, you know, right now that slowed a bit. Officials are saying hold tight where you are right now. If you move to higher ground, stay there, but they are withholding the right to continue those evacuations depending on when the rain starts to intensity and just how intense it is. So yeah, i wouldnt be surprised at all if through the weekend we see more evacuations and people just getting to higher ground. All right, jay gray live in kitty hawk, North Carolina. Thanks, jay.
