Those rain showers pack a punch! Just had to clear my gutters. In minutes the street is flooded 

[Nibor]

Feels very tropical outside.

1.5” already at JFK.

I’m beginning to get VERY worried about severe flooding on the Island… this could be very bad…

 

And with that threat, even if winds aren’t that strong they could still take down trees

[lee59]

Already 1.50 inches of rain here.

Where will there be severe flooding? From the rain? Long has Sandy soils which drains well. There are also few rivers and creeks which flood. Most of the island can handle 5” of rain without a problem…10” and you will see issues

[nycsnow]

Both nams are already wrong with rainfall totals

I’d wager someplace on the Island will see a foot plus of rain
