NYC Weather: Heavy Rain To Bring Flood Threat

NEW YORK, NEW YORK — Another bout of rain will shower over New York City before sun brings in a warm summer weekend, forecasters predict.

The National Weather Service has issued a "Hazardous Weather Outlook" for southeast New York, including all five NYC boroughs, and southern Connecticut for Thursday, when showers and thunderstorms late in the day could bring flooding. A flash flood warning is also in effect just below the city in northeast New Jersey.

The hazardous outlook, issued around 5:15 a.m. Thursday, will only last overnight and into early Friday morning though. Sunny skies and high temperatures are predicted for the rest of the weekend.

Rain won't start to pick up until later this afternoon, ramping up the showers into the night, according to the NWS.
