A stormy Thursday
It is a First Alert Weather Day in the Tri-State Area amid bouts of thunderstorms and rain throughout the day in the New York City area.
After dodging downpours all morning, however, it looks like most of New York, New Jersey and Connecticut will catch a break until this afternoon, when all bets are off.
The main concerns after lunchtime are heavy rain, which could lead to flooding, as well as damaging winds, particularly north and west of the city.
The showers and thunderstorms will wrap up late this evening, with generally quiet conditions for the remainder of the night.
Looking ahead
Friday looks like it will shape up nicely, outside of a brief passing shower along the cost in the morning.
Looking ahead to the weekend, Saturday will stay dry, but showers return to the forecast on Sunday.
