Severe thunderstorm watch
AccuWeather forecasters say there are multiple chances for rain in the foreseeable future for the Northeast and while the wet weather may disrupt some outdoor plans and lead to travel slowdowns in spots, the rain is badly needed in many areas.
On Sunday, rainfall was focused to the west of the I-95 corridor. Locations such as Cleveland, Ohio, and Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, each received over an inch of rainfall as thunderstorms swept through, bringing localized heavy downpours to those caught in their path. Rainfall was a bit lighter toward the east, though still beneficial. In State College, Pennsylvania, nearly a quarter inch of rain fell, the first measurable rainfall for the city since July 5.
