>>> THE REMNANTS OF IDA MOVING INTO OUR AREA TONIGHT. FLOOD AND TORNADO WATCH IS NOW IN EFFECT. >> THE WORST EXPECTED IN A FEW HOURS. TAKE A LOOK AT THE DAMAGE CAUSED BY A POSSIBLE TORNADO. THIS IS ANNAPOLIS, MARYLAND. THE REMNANTS OF IDA PASS-THROUGH EARLIER TODAY. >> WE HAVE LIVE TEAM COVERAGE. JOHN ELLIOTT IS STANDING BY IN NEW JERSEY. WE HAVE A NEW ADVISORY JUST OUT. >>> I WILL SHOW YOU THE LATEST. THERE IS DISCUSSIONS RIGHT NOW THAT IDA MAY BE UPGRADED TO A CATEGORY 5 WHEN IT CAME ONSHORE IN LOUISIANA. WE ARE SEEING MORE DAMAGE THAN IS INDICATIVE OF THE WIND.

THE WIND GAUGES GOT BLOWN AWAY. RIGHT NOW, IDA IS EITHER TO THE WEST. 71 DEGREES RIGHT NOW. IT IS ALL ABOUT THE STORM. DO NOT LET YOUR GUARD DOWN. IT IS NOT A HURRICANE. IT IS NOT A TROPICAL STORM. IT'S A REMNANT LOW. IF YOU TAKE IT SERIOUSLY, I THINK YOU WILL BE SORRY. I WANT TO BE CLEAR. I THINK IT'S A RAINSTORM, ONE YOU SHOULD GIVE SOME CREDENCE TO. THE BIGGEST ACTIVITIES ARE IN ALLENTOWN, PENNSYLVANIA. LOOK AT THIS AREA. NORTH AND WEST OF THE CITY YOU HAVE NOT GOTTEN INTO THE STORM AND ALREADY THE RAIN IS STARTING TO STUCK UP. CHECK IN ON DUTCHESS COUNTY.

RIGHT NOW, YOU HAVE PICKED UP ALMOST AN INCH AND THREE QUARTERS WORTH OF RAIN, AND THE STORM IS MILES AWAY FROM YOU. PLACES LIKE SUSSEX COUNTY HAVE HEAVY BEANS AND RAIN MOVING IN. THE STORM IS TRACKING JUST LIKE MY HAND IS MOVING. AROUND MARYLAND, ANNAPOLIS HAS REPORTS OF TORNADOES. ANOTHER APPROACHING THE DELAWARE BORDER. WE HAVE TO BE CONCERNED ABOUT THINGS LIKE THAT IN OUR AREA. FROM RIGHT NOW THROUGH 8:00 P.M., HEAVY RAIN IS WEST OF NEW YORK CITY. THIS BLUE DOG SHOWS YOU WHERE MY COLLEAGUE IS RIGHT NOW. WHAT YOU TAKE US THROUGH THE WATCHES AND THE WARNINGS AND THE CONCERNS WITH THIS STORM THAT IS NOT A HURRICANE OR

TROPICAL STORM. BUT WILL BE A PROBLEM. >> Reporter: I WANT TO CIRCLE BACK REAL QUICK TO WHAT YOU WERE TALKING ABOUT IN THE HUDSON VALLEY. I WANT TO REMIND YOU, RAIN PUSHING THE RIGHT NOW. YOU SEE IT HIGHLIGHTED ON THE RADAR. THE BOXES A TORNADO WATCH. THAT MEANS CONDITIONS ARE FAVORABLE FOR THE FORMATION OF A TORNADO. A WARM FRONT TRADE TO THE SOUTH WILL STIR UP THE ATMOSPHERE SUFFICIENTLY FOR ROTATION. WE ARE CONCERNED ABOUT THAT. THEN THE FOCUS SHIFTS TO RAIN AND A LOT OF IT. EVERYBODY IS UNDER A FLOOD WATCH. THAT MEANS YOU CAN SEE RAPID RISING WATER. DON'T DRIVE THROUGH IT. TURNAROUND, DON'T DROWN.

AND THE DARKER COLORS YOU SEE, THIS IS WHAT LONNIE IS TALKING ABOUT. WE ARE GETTING SOME PRETTY SIGNIFICANT TOTALS THROUGH PARTS OF ORANGE COUNTY, THROUGH PARTS OF SULLIVAN COUNTY. THEY ARE UNDER A WARNING AND THEY HAVE NOT SEEN THE WORST OF IT. WE ARE IN BOUND BROOK. THE CONCERN IS RIVER FLOODING. RIGHT NOW THE STAGES AROUND 17 BUT IT COULD BE CLOSE TO 36 MILES AN HOUR. THIS IS VIDEO FROM A FEW MINUTES AGO. IT IS RELATIVELY CALM ABOUT THE CONCERN IS GOING TO BE AS ALL OF THE RAIN FEEDS IN, WHERE WILL HE GO? COMING UP WE WILL TALK ABOUT A STORE OWNER WHO IS VERY CONCERNED.
