Storm drops half foot of water on some Bucks County towns. Who's still without power?

When it rains, it pours.

And with it comes the risk of future flooding for communities across Bucks County and Montgomery County.

Half a foot of rain fell Sunday night in some parts of Bucks County, according to the National Weather Service. On Monday morning, PECO was responding to reported power outages in at least five towns.

Eleven drivers had to be rescued from their cars, including one marine rescue, county officials said. Bucks County received 67 reports of road hazards from downed trees, electrical wires, or other debris in the highway. Fire crews pumped water out of six flooded basements in Quakertown, officials said.

In Durham Township, first responders were so worried about flooding that they asked residents to evacuate homes along the Cooks Creek. Fortunately, the homes were not damaged, officials said.

The National Weather Service forecasts a "low probability" for severe weather through the week. Yet there remains some risk of flooding as all that rain runs down Delaware River and Neshaminy Creek.

With the current meteorological conditions, AccuWeather warned that storms could form quickly and dump "a summer's worth of rain" in a single day.

Will the Delaware River and Neshaminy Creek flood?

The Delaware River and Neshaminy Creek will come very close to storm surges that could result in minor flooding, according to the National Weather Service.

Minor flooding is possible along the Delaware River near Bristol Borough.

On Sunday night, the river surged from 2 feet to 9 feet. A similar surge is expected mid-day Monday and Tuesday along the Bristol waterfront. Flooding in Bristol is possible when the river surges to 9.3 feet.

Early Monday, the Neshaminy Creek rose from 1 foot to 6 feet in depth near Bensalem, Bristol Township, Hulmeville and Middletown, officials said.

Minor flooding is possible in those communities when the Neshaminy surges to 9 feet, according the the National Weather Service. On Twitter, motorists shared images of block roadways.

How much rain fell on Bucks County and Montgomery County?

Sunday night's summer storms dumped huge amounts of water in some communities, while neighboring towns received less than an inch of precipitation.

More than 6 inches of rain fell in Quakertown, according to the National Weather Service. Doylestown received. 1.7 inches of rain, forecasters said. Areas of Lower Bucks County received about 1 inch of precipitation.

Who lost power in the storm?

PECO is responding to power outages in Bensalem, Bristol Township, Point Pleasant, Solebury and Upper Makefield. Most incidents involved fewer than five customers.

In Upper Southampton, approximately 43 homes and businesses were without power. That was a largest known power outage in the county as of Monday morning.
