STORM WATCH: Heavy rain threat leads to Flood Watch posted from 2pm today to 2am Friday.
We’ll start the day with sunshine, but keep the umbrella handy because some wet weather is heading our way later today. Clouds will increase this afternoon, with showers developing mainly after 2 p.m. The rain will move into western Nassau County first before spreading east toward Montauk through the late afternoon and evening. Scattered thunderstorms are also possible, especially around the evening rush and near sunset. High temperatures will reach the 80s, with cooler 70s along the shoreline.
A Flood Watch is in effect from 2 p.m. today through 2 a.m. Friday as periods of moderate to heavy rain could lead to localized street and poor-drainage flooding. Rainfall totals of 1 to 2 inches are possible, with locally higher amounts where heavier showers or thunderstorms develop. If you’re traveling later today or this evening, be prepared for areas of heavy rain, reduced visibility and water-covered roads.
Tonight will remain unsettled with showers, periods of rain and a few scattered thunderstorms. Some pockets of moderate to heavy rain are possible, so localized street flooding will remain a concern through the overnight hours. Conditions will gradually become less active toward Friday morning, but plenty of clouds will stick around. Overnight lows will fall into the 60s. Friday stays mostly cloudy and cooler with a couple of spotty showers and highs only in the upper 70s. More showers are possible Friday night, with lows in the 60s.
Unfortunately, the unsettled pattern hangs around for the weekend. Saturday will feature mostly cloudy skies and scattered showers, with cooler highs in the mid- to upper 70s. Additional showers are possible Saturday night. We may catch a few breaks in the clouds Sunday morning, but showers will remain possible through the day. Temperatures will be a little warmer Sunday, reaching the upper 70s to lower 80s.
