Flood Watch issued by NWS Baltimore MD/Washington due to excessive rainfall, with potential flash flooding in DC, MD, VA, and WV. Heavy showers expected; weekly forecast includes thunderstorms and high humidity.

Major I-95 cities -- Philadelphia, Baltimore, Washington, D.C., and Richmond, Virginia -- could be impacted as heavy downpours could bring 2-3 inches of rainfall per hour over already saturated soils, which could easily cause flash flooding.

A Flood Watch is in effect Monday afternoon for the Washington, D.C., region as showers and thunderstorms capable of producing heavy rainfall move through the area.
