NEW YORK — A nor’easter churned its way toward the Tri-State on Sunday with the threat of excessive rain, damaging winds and coastal flooding.

Coastal flooding is expected during multiple high tide cycles through Monday as a prolonged onshore flow from our nor’easter combines with already high astronomical tides. The greatest threat for major, damaging flooding will be along Great South Bay (L.I.) and Barnegat Bay (NJ).

High Wind Warning continues into Monday across eastern Long Island and along the Jersey Shore with gusts up to 60mph possible. Wind Advisory for the rest of our coastal counties (including NYC) with gusts up to 50mph. These winds can bring down trees and cause power outages.
