Nor'easter Soaks NYC, Flood Watch Continues As More Rain Expected

NEW YORK CITY — A nor'easter that blew into New York City overnight isn't done soaking the city.

A flash flood watch remains in effect Tuesday until 6 p.m. as up to 2 inches of more rain are expected, according to the National Weather Service.

The storm already dumped several inches of rain overnight, with Brooklyn receiving 3.25 inches, National Weather Service data shows.

But the city, which was under a state of emergency and travel advisory, largely seems to have weathered the storm so far. Still, city emergency managers warned there is still more to come.

"We wake to heavy rain falling across the Tri-State as a strong coastal low develops offshore," the city's Emergency Management tweeted. "Several additional inches of rainfall is expected. Take it slow and allow yourself extra time if traveling today."

Scattered flooding still hit parts of New York City.

The Staten Island Railway suspended service because of flooding, and exits on the Brooklyn Queens Expressway were closed as water made travel unsafe, according to emergency managers.

Areas that will experience flooding, according to the National Weather Service, are: Jamaica, Flatbush, Flushing, Mott Haven, East Tremont, Coney Island, Rockaway Beach, Todt Hill, Crown Heights, Midtown Manhattan, RFK Bridge, Laguardia Airport, The Verrazano Narrows Bridge, Kennedy Airport, Throgs Neck Bridge, Huguenot, Harlem, Jackson Heights, Forest Hills and Canarsie.

A handful of Con Edison customers, mostly in Queens, experienced outages in the storm, according to an outage map.

The heaviest rain is expected until 4 p.m. and a hazardous weather outlook remains in effect until Wednesday, according to the National Weather Service.
