Officials in Bucks County initiated rescue efforts earlier the same morning after around five inches of rain made landfall in the region.

Local media reports say the county coroner has, so far, confirmed at least three deaths, and said the bodies of those victims were located outside of their vehicles on a road where flood waters may have risen to as high as five feet.

Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro (D) has since provided residents impacted by the flooding with information about how to seek out in-person assistance, as he relayed in a tweet Saturday morning.
