LANSDALE, PA — A strong Thursday morning thunderstorm that dumped up to three inches of rain in the local area could again cause flash flooding in the area and threaten roadways.

The Lansdale area was specifically noted as at risk to Thursday's storms by the National Weather Service, as well as Montgomeryville, Kulpsville, Harleysville, Telford, Hatfield, Souderton, and parts of central Bucks County.
