A 'tricky' storm system could dump more than 3 inches of rain on parts of the Hudson Valley between late Sunday and Tuesday, forecasters in the region have warned, raising the risk of flash flooding despite the area's currently dry ground.
The flood watch centres on a stalled frontal boundary and a weak low pressure system that are expected to set up across the Northeast, creating the sort of messy atmospheric mix that can turn an ordinary rainy spell into something far more disruptive.
