MUCH NEEDED RAINFALL COMING TO THE TRI-STATE AREA OVER THE NEXT 12 to 24 HOURS! (credit: NWS New York, New York)

DISCUSSION: As a weak low-pressure system makes its way up the East Coast over the next several hours, heavier rainfall will gradually move into the tri-state area with some areas likely to receive close to if not over an inch of rain.  As stated in the graphic below, this is some much-needed rain for much of Long Island, the Hudson Valley, Northern and Central New Jersey, and Southwest Conecticut!  For more neat weather content from across the United States, be sure to click here!
