Whatver gaps there were in the rain to our south looks to be filling in now. I am wondering if some places will make a 6.00" rainfall total between both storms. 

Intensifying low coming up the coast so precip will fill in quickly.

Subtropical look with bands that'll come from the southeast as low pulls up.

Very heavy rain brought flooding to parts of the region today. LaGuardia Airport saw 2.75" of rain through 7 pm following yesterday's 2.49". The last time LaGuardia Airport saw 2.40" or more rain on two consecutive days was August 12-13, 1955. Some additional rain and showers are likely overnight.

A cool pattern remains in place. That pattern will continue through the opening week of May. Afterward, temperatures will trend toward normal and above normal during the second week of May.

April 2023 was among the 10 warmest Aprils on record in much of the region. Preliminary monthly temperatures and rankings include:

Boston: 50.8° (16th warmest)
Bridgeport: 52.0° (5th warmest)
Islip: 53.3° (3rd warmest)
New Haven: 53.6° (1st warmest)
New York City-Central Park: 57.6° (2nd warmest)
New York City-JFK Airport 54.4° (3rd warmest)
New York City-LaGuardia Airport: 57.0° (3rd warmest)
Newark: 58.0° (1st warmest)
Philadelphia: 58.3° (6th warmest)
Poughkeepsie: 53.0° (3rd warmest)
White Plains: 53.5° (3rd warmest)

The ENSO Region 1+2 anomaly was +2.5°C and the Region 3.4 anomaly was +0.3°C for the week centered around April 19. For the past six weeks, the ENSO Region 1+2 anomaly has averaged +2.20°C and the ENSO Region 3.4 anomaly has averaged +0.08°C. Neutral ENSO conditions will likely prevail through at least mid-spring. El Niño conditions will very likely develop during the summer.

The SOI was +12.76 today.

The preliminary Arctic Oscillation (AO) was -1.480 today.

On April 28 the MJO was in Phase 2 at an amplitude of 1.391 (RMM). The April 27-adjusted amplitude was 1.761 (RMM).

Yeah I got an alert of a flood warning for the Bronx River. There's new buildings right along the river just south of the Zoo, I suspect that's what the E Tremont reference is for.

The usual suspects already have closures, Bx River, Saw Mill Pkwy..
