Upstate has it bad
Shipoke apparently won't get flooded this time, but several upstate areas won't be so lucky. Danville in Montour County put out a desperate call for people to fill and place sandbags. The Susquehanna River is within inches of flood stage there. In Wilkes-Barre, which was devastated by the Agnes Flood in 1972, authorities ordered more than 200,000 residents of the areas hit by the Agnes Flood to evacuate.
Near Elysburg in Northumberland County, Knoebels Groves Amusement Park, always a flooding hotspot, was evacuating campers and cottage owners. Several parts of Schuylkill County, especially the town of Mount Carbon, have experienced serious flooding. Some are saying the overall damage in the state will be worse than the Agnes Flood in 1972.
