FROM THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE - About storm Thursday into Friday............A strong low pressure system is expected to affect the region tomorrow into early friday. this will bring the potential for a widespread 2 to 3 inches of rain...with locally higher amounts possible. isolated strong thunderstorms with gusty winds will also be possible thursday morning and afternoon. The location of heaviest rainfall is unclear at this time. but due to saturated grounds from recent heavy rains...if the higher end of the rainfall amounts are realized...widespread urban and small stream flooding issues and significant rises on our main stem rivers could be expected. the areas at highest risk for flooding would be across northeastern new jersey...the lower hudson valley...and urban centers. the saturated grounds may also make trees and power lines more susceptible to falling with any stronger wind gusts.
