Hazardous Outlook, Coastal Flooding For The Hudson Valley

After record-breaking cold and then drenching rain, the Hudson Valley gets one day — one day — of partly sunny weather with mild temperatures for late November. We should have expected the National Weather Service to put out two notices about hazardous conditions and coastal flooding.

The hazardous weather outlook is for Orange, Putnam, Rockland and northern Westchester counties:

Monday through Saturday: With the moderate to heavy rainfall that occurred across the region Saturday and Saturday night, and with the likelihood of additional rainfall Monday and Monday night, flooding of small streams will be possible.

"When all is said and done… another inch of rainfall seems likely," said Alex Marra and Bill Potter of Hudson Valley Weather.

The coastal flood statement includes southern Westchester and is for Sunday:

LOCATIONS...Vulnerable coastal locales along Jamaica Bay and Great South Bay, including along the Atlantic Ocean beachfront, Peconic Bay including Riverhead and the twin forks of eastern Long Island, along Western Long Island Sound, and along NY Harbor, including the Arthur Kill, Kill Van Kull, Newark Bay and the tidally affected portions of the Passaic and Hackensack Rivers.

* TIDAL DEPARTURE...Around 1 to 1 1/2 ft in most places, except 2 to 2 1/2 ft in westernmost Long Island Sound and in spots along the south shore back bays of Nassau.

* COASTAL FLOOD IMPACTS...Brief minor flooding of the most vulnerable locations near the waterfront and shoreline.

* TIMING...Around the time of high tide early this afternoon and later this evening.
