Saturday night I was coming down the PA Turnpike from the west and saw an illuminated sign about 5 ft high on the shoulder that read "CAUTION Heavy Rain Ahead". Never saw that sort of sign on the pike before. By the time I got off at Rte 100(Exton) the rain was coming down at more than 2 inches per hour according to the weather bureau. Seemed heavier than that.

All the sane people were pulling over to wait it out, the visibility was about a car length, every intersection was flooded, and both shoulders flooded and moving if there was any slope. Couldn't get anywhere near the speed limit which is a shame because no cop is going to get out of his cruiser in that shit.
