NYC Rain Returns Tomorrow Coastal Flooding Lingers
03/26/24 9:36am ET
Good morning everyone. We had a fairly wild night last night in parts of the Gulf states as a narrow line of severe weather slowly moved through Louisiana, Mississippi, and Alabama; bringing with it, torrential rains, flash flooding, damaging winds, large hail, and a few tornadoes. Today we watch that energy shift east as low pressure continues to meander off of the East Coast. That low pressure will give us 1-2 more incidents of coastal flooding during high tide cycles, then things should start to subside in the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast.
However, rain and wind returns to the Northeast and New England as all of this moisture organizes into a wave of low pressure, once again moving up the East Coast. Before that though, we’ll be watching for the prospects of flooding rain and heavy thunderstorms in the Southeast and Florida. We’ll also be on the lookout for yet another round of isolated severe weather across most of Florida as our wave of low pressure gets going along the Georgia & South Carolina coast.
Look for the potential of flash flooding, along with isolated large hail, waterspouts, and the chance of a few isolated brief tornadoes. The timeline on this looks to be now in terms of storms entering central Alabama and the Florida panhandle, early to mid afternoon for the rest of the Panhandle and Georgia; then things stall out and re-fire tomorrow morning/late morning in southeast Georgia, South Carolina, central/northern Florida, and into south Florida overnight tomorrow night into Thursday.
Here is your local NYC Metro forecast –
SATELLITE
Clouds are already here, and that’s a mix between clouds retrograding from our system a couple of days ago, and our approaching system from the west. We remain dry today, but chilly with highs in the mid to upper 40’s at best.
WEATHER RADAR
On and off light rain moves in tomorrow, and it’ll be milder even though it won’t feel as such. Look for highs in the low to mid 50’s. Rain become steadier overnight tomorrow, then more rain on Thursday; moderate to heavy at times and highs near 50.
Things clear out Friday for a windy day and highs in the 50-55 range.
We have the slight chance of a few late showers Saturday with more 50’s, then a breezy day on Sunday with more 50-55 degree temps. Our active pattern continues with more soaking rain expected by midweek next week.
