A major storm system will develop over the Great Lakes, tracking eastward, with rain expected over the Interstate 95 corridor starting Thursday morning. This is significant as many cities in the Northeast have not seen this amount of rain for three months.
With firefighters battling wildfires prompted by dry weather, the anticipated rain will be a crucial factor in reducing wildfire threats across New Jersey and Massachusetts, where many fires have been reported over the last two months.
Given that New York City hasn't received significant rainfall since late September, the Drought Warning declared by Mayor Eric Adams emphasizes the urgent need for water conservation measures as the city braces for potential rain.
The ongoing drought has led to an unprecedented dry fall across the Northeast, affecting cities like Philadelphia and Hartford, CT, compelling local officials to issue warnings and calls for water conservation.
