NEW YORK (WABC) — After severe flash flooding walloped parts of New York City and New Jersey Saturday afternoon, the rest of the day was wet but not nearly as wild as storms eventually pulled away, but downpour risks lingered into the night.
Once the last of the storms are gone and a cold front pushes through overnight, Sunday will be sunny, less humid and with better air quality, the skies significantly cleansed of noxious Canadian wildfire smoke.
