Synopsis:
A Flash Flood Watch is in effect through this morning for the NYC vicinity and much of NJ. A slow moving cool front has produced torrential rain, flooding rain over parts of the watch area this morning. One to four inches of rain is possible within parts of the Watch area. If you see a flooded roadway, TURN AROUND, DON’T DROWN.
The steadiest rain will taper off toward mid-day. On and off showers are expected during the afternoon. Readings will be at least twenty degrees cooler than Saturday’s upper 80s.
On and off showers will continue tonight.
The Memorial Day forecast is still looking half way decent. The front should be just far enough South of the area for only the threat of a spot shower in the morning. Clouds should give way to some sun by afternoon. Temperatures will be a few degrees below the average high of 74º.
The beginning of the workweek will be warm with plenty of sunshine.
Stay tuned.
