NYC update: Scattered storms are likely between now and 6pm. Mainly dry for tonight. The storms could bring flash flooding for Staten Island, Southern. Brooklyn and Southern Queens and lower Manhattan.
Surprised ? Today marks the day where the Earth is farthest from the sun, nearly 3 million miles distant than in December. Yes, the sun is further away in summer than in winter.
If where you live has basement flooding, NOW is the time to get ready for heavy rain: Late tonight through Monday are when the downpours are possible. Make sure valuables are up off the ground.
Ground stop until at least 10pm for all NYC airports. I doubt many flights will get out or come in tonight. Monday will be a difficult day for air travel as well in the NYC area
NYC update: Light rain through 8:30am. Heavier rain possible 9am through 1pm. Today is one of those days where flooding can happen fast. It could go from showers to flooded subways and water rescues from vehicles in under an hour as tropical-like moisture is in place.
