Reports: Damaging winds, flooding leads to dangerous conditions (Report)

A powerful storm will pummel the northeastern United States with heavy rain, locally damaging winds and significant travel disruptions into Monday.

Rain and wind that began to pick up on Sunday morning in the mid-Atlantic will only increase and become more disruptive from south to north into Monday morning.

“Heavy rain will continue to move through New York City, southern New England and the mid-Atlantic over the next several hours,” AccuWeather Meteorologist Alyson Hoegg said.

The storm will be moving at a swift pace which will limit the most intense wind and rain to a six to 12 hour period.

“This windswept rain will lead to dangerous driving conditions through the night. Winds will gradually pick up as well which can lead to power outages,” Hoegg said.
