Racing was called off after five races at Parx Tuesday after heavy rains swamped the racecourse.
Bensalem, Pennsylvania, where Parx is located was under a severe thunderstorm watch Monday along with most of the I-95 corridor and a funnel cloud was observed near Washington, D.C. The storms came with winds of up to 60 miles per hours, and delayed flights at major airports from Philadelphia to New York City. The National Weather Service issued reports of flooded highways with people stuck in cars in Pennsylvania, along with downed trees in Maryland.
Parx has carded 12 races for Wednesday, with first post at 12:40 p.m.
