Storm coverage and intensity should generally be lower than the last few days, but a few additional instances of flooding or a very isolated gusty thunderstorm can't be completely ruled out. Overall, however, we're starting to get out of the stormiest part of the pattern.

Chester County is still experiencing intermittent 9-1-1 call delivery issues. If you have difficulties calling 911 during an emergency, call 610-436-4700. We are engaged with PA Emergency Management and their NextGen911 vendor. Please refrain from calling 911 to test the service.

At this time, 911 services have been restored in Pennsylvania. An investigation into what caused intermittent outages will continue, and we will update you on that as soon as we can. We worked with counties to fully test that the system is operational. Please do not call 911
