Episode Narrative: The combination of a very slow moving cold front and copious moisture from the remnants of Tropical Storm Tammy produced periods of very heavy rain across Morris County during the morning and evening of the 8th. The evening period of very heavy rain caused many of the smaller creeks and brooks to flood in the county. Flooding later spread to the Pompton and Passaic Rivers. Storm totals averaged seven to ten inches. The heavy rain also caused widespread poor drainage flooding. In Lincoln Park, homes along Beaver Brook Road were evacuated. East Hanover Township, Morris Plains Borough, Morris Township, Denville Township, Montville Township and Hanover Township had many roads closed due to flooding including New Jersey State Route 53 in Morris Plains and Denville. Flooding along the Whippany Creek inundated four roads with up to three feet of water. Basements were flooded in Montville. The Den Brook in Denville and the Watnong Brook in Morris Township also flooded. The Passaic River at Chatham was above its 6 foot flood stage from 919 p.m. EDT on the 8th through 311 a.m. EDT on the 9th and again from 930 p.m. EDT on the 10th through 3 a.m. EDT on the 11th. It crested at 6.5 feet at Midnight EDT on the 9th. Farther downstream, the Passaic River at Pine Brook was above its 19 foot flood stage from 215 a.m. EDT on the 10th through 1030 a.m. It crested at 19.07 feet at 315 p.m. EDT on the 10th. The Pompton River at Pompton Plains was above its 16 foot flood stage from 121 a.m. EDT through 827 p.m. EDT on the 9th. It crested at 17.89 feet at 1130 a.m. EDT. The Whippany Creek in Morristown was above its 6 foot flood stage from 701 p.m. EDT on the 8th through 939 a.m. It crested at 6.71 feet at 1130 p.m. EDT on the 8th.Storm totals included 9.80 inches in Morris Plains, 9.75 inches in Butler, 9.48 inches in Ironia, 8.60 inches in Jefferson Township, 8.42 inches in Boonton, 8.03 inches in Chatham and 7.24 inches in Morristown. The flooding on the 8th and 9th and the subsequent flooding during the upcoming week damaged over 2,700 single family homes, over 640 apartment units and 220 businesses throughout the state of New Jersey. The cold front moved from near Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania at 8 p.m. EDT on the 7th, to the Susquehanna Valley in Pennsylvania at 2 a.m. EDT on the 8th, to the Poconos and Berks County in Pennsylvania and just west of Chesapeake Bay in Maryland at 8 a.m. EDT on the 8th. The cold front stalled as waves of low pressure road northeast along it. At 2 p.m. EDT on the 8th, the cold front just edged into northwestern New Jersey and the Philadelphia northwest suburbs and was still west of Chesapeake Bay in Maryland. At 8 p.m. EDT that evening the cold front barely moved into the Philadelphia New Jersey suburbs and the Delmarva Peninsula. The cold front and waves of low pressure cleared the Delaware and New Jersey coasts between Midnight EDT and 2 a.m. The slow movement and stalling coupled with an unstable air mass and tropical moisture associated with Tammy helped enhance the torrential downpours. The flooding would have been even worse if not for the unseasonably dry weather that preceded this event from the middle of August. Event Narrative:
