After the NHC issued their final advisory on Jeanne on September 27 as it weakened to a tropical depression, the HPC took over responsibility of warning the public of the storm. That evening, flood watches were issued for much of the southeastern United States as well as parts of southern Virginia. Several hours later, additional flood watches were posted for southeastern New York and northeastern Pennsylvania. The HPC issued flood warnings in several counties of southeastern Virginia, as heavy rainfall moved into that are. Additionally, most areas between Georgia and southern New York, especially along the Appalachian Mountains, were under flood or flash flood watches. Throughout September 28, larger portions of the Mid-Atlantic region recorded moderate to heavy rainfall, prompting the issuance of more flash flood warnings.
