All of New Jersey has been placed under flood warnings or advisories.
The National Weather Service says streams and small rivers are likely to overflow their banks.
The warnings, which cover nearly all of the state, are to expire between 10:30 p.m. Friday and early Saturday morning. But a flood watch remains across the state through Saturday afternoon.
Heavy rain fell in many areas throughout Thursday and Friday and was expected to continue off and on through the weekend.
Some parts of New Jersey are still cleaning up from flooding over the past month caused by Hurricane Irene and remnants of Tropical Storm Lee.
Forecasters say the ground remains soggy and is unable to absorb much more water.
