Synopsis:
There is a moderate threat of severe flooding in and around the NYC vicinity today . Low pressure off the coast, along with a trough extending into our region will result in on and off rain through Saturday morning. Some of the rain will be locally heavy. The heaviest axis of rain, with the latest computer guidance and radar trends, looks to be in and around the NYC vicinity. The potential for one to three inches with locally up to six inches of rain is on the table. This is a perilous situation. The ground is completely saturated from previous rain early this week. It won’t take much for flooding to occur. A Flash Flood Watch has been posted for the area. If you encounter a flooded roadway- turn around, don’t drown.
Saturday will start off with clouds and the possibility of morning showers as once again we have a stubborn exiting low pressure. If we’re lucky we’ll get to see some late day sun.
October’s debut on Sunday looks spectacular with abundant sunshine and above average temperatures. The average highs are in the lower 70s. A string of beauties are expected well into next week!
Stay tuned.
