Central Pennsylvania faces a significant weather risk on Wednesday with ongoing flash flood concerns and potential severe thunderstorms developing through the afternoon and evening.

We had to stay calm because the younger girls were freaking out too, so I sang some songs, I tried to cheer them up,” Girl Scout Emilia Krieger said.

Severe weather is threatening millions tonight as heavy rain pounds Kansas. Nearly 20 tornadoes touched down from Nebraska to Minnesota. Residents in West Virginia are reeling after major flooding killed at least seven people.

Pittsburgh faces heavy rain and potential flooding, with a Flood Watch in effect across parts of PA, OH, and WV.

The National Weather Service has issued a flood watch for some Pennsylvania counties, including two in the Susquehanna Valley.

The Flood Watch has been extended until 10 p.m. Many of these areas are still recovering from bouts of flash flooding over the weekend. Allegheny, Greene, Fayette, Washington, Westmoreland along with Garrett, Monongalia, and Preston counties are included in the watch.

The 14-mile trail follows the route of the devastating 1889 Johnstown Flood that killed over 2,000 people and now attracts 80,000 visitors annually.

A flood watch was issued by the National Weather Service on Saturday at 3:06 a.m. valid between 6 a.m. and 4 p.m. for Venango, Forest, Clarion and Jefferson counties.
