Though showers and storms mostly avoided Manhattan Sunday, there was lots of activity throughout the region, particularly in New Jersey. That is where we've seen some reports of flash flooding, a funnel cloud and even lightning striking a home.

Right now, the activity has dwindled significantly. As we progress through the night, some redevelopment of showers is possible, especially towards dawn. Some patchy fog is also possible. Otherwise, expect muggy conditions with a low of 70.
