The previous TWO HOURS [19] precipitation is shown by the Intellicast time-series radar.  Rain fell where the image shows green (light rain), yellow (more intense rain), or red (very intense rain). Reload the page if think you are not getting the latest image.  To convert time stamps on the images to local time:

0000 GMT = midnight GMT = 8pm Eastern Daylight Savings Time (EDST)
0200 GMT = 2am GMT = 10pm EDST
0400 GMT = 12am (midnight) EDST
0600 GMT =   2am EDST
0800 GMT =   4am EDST
1000 GMT =   6am EDST
1200 GMT =   8am EDST
1400 GMT = 10am EDST
