West Essex Update from NOAA: ​

SATURDAY
Periods of rain, heavy at times, can be expected today as a feed of moisture continues to pour into the area from the south. A few embedded thunderstorms will be possible as well. 

Excessive runoff will be possible which would lead to flooding of urban and poor drainage areas. In addition, smaller rivers and streams could overflow their banks. Conditions may develop that lead to flash flooding. 

SATURDAY NIGHT
The arc of moisture will track east of the region tonight, taking the heavy rain offshore.

SUNDAY
The main storm system however will remain to the west, still only slowly approaching on Easter Sunday. This may trigger some additional showers on Sunday, but widespread heavy rainfall is not expected at this time. 

FLOOD advisory

7:20am
West Essex Update from NOAA: ​

At 7:17am, Doppler radar indicated heavy rain due to showers and thunderstorms. This will cause urban and small stream flooding in the advisory area. Up to one inch of rain has already fallen. Additional rainfall is expected to move over the advisory area this morning.
