A nor'easter will impact New York and New Jersey beginning Saturday with rain intensifying Sunday night and continuing into Monday. Rainfall could total as much as 2.5 inches through Monday evening, with sustained winds up to 40 mph Sunday night and Monday. Coastal areas may see flooding more than two feet above sea level and 8- to 10-foot waves in locations such as the Rockaways, Long Island's Twin Forks, and the Jersey Shore. The National Weather Service has issued hazardous weather outlooks, a high winds watch, and a coastal flooding watch. Officials urge residents to stock supplies, prepare for outages, relocate boats, check on neighbors, and have evacuation plans. Several weekend events, including the Staten Island Half Marathon and an Indigenous People's Day gathering, were canceled.
