The heavy rain had triggered Areal Flood Advisories across the region, mainly in spots that saw the highest totals. The flood advisories have since expired, but it's still possible for low lying areas to be inundated with water. Main concerns with the rain are flooded roadways and road ponding. If you come across a flooded road, TURN AROUND DON'T DROWN.
