New York Weather: CBS2's 10/27 Wednesday Afternoon Forecast

The rain is wrapping up with just a few leftover showers to the east this morning. The winds, however, will keep up through this afternoon with much of the area seeing gusts of 25-45 mph; Long Island will see gusts of 50-60+ mph. That said, a wind advisory (50+ mph: Nassau/W. Suffolk/Fairfield) and high wind warning (60+ mph: E. Suffolk) will remain in effect until about 2 PM. Outside of all that, we're looking at mostly cloudy to partly sunny skies (partly to mostly sunny to the west) with highs around 60 degrees.

Regarding coastal flooding, minor flooding is expected along the NY/NJ coastline midday and into the afternoon, but mainly outside the city.

Friday we'll be dealing with another round of rain in the afternoon and at night, but this system isn't expected to dump nearly as much... 0.5-1.5" on average. However, due to the recent rainfall and saturated ground, localized flooding can't be ruled out.
