Bryan Ramsey Predicts a Week of Stormy Weather and Potential Flash Flooding for the Northeast
NWS Meteorologist Bryan Ramsey reports that the Northeast region will experience a significant storm system beginning Monday afternoon, bringing heavy rain and thunderstorms throughout the work week. The system is expected to slow down dramatically over the Tri-state area and Philadelphia, with the heaviest rainfall occurring between Tuesday and Wednesday morning. While the region has enjoyed a dry period recently, the storm is expected to drop up to a month's worth of rain in just a few days. The National Weather Service predicts two to three inches of rain for New York City, with potential for flash flooding in urban and poor drainage areas. Southern Vermont and northern New York are also expected to receive over 4 inches of rain in some locations. The storm system will move slowly through the region, with temperatures remaining above normal. The weather is expected to break by the weekend, with another dry stretch of outdoor activities predicted for the weekend.
