⛈️ Heads up, New York: thunderstorms and heavy rain are expected Tuesday into Wednesday, and localized flash flooding is possible. Rain may start as early as Tuesday morning, but the main event is Tuesday evening. Multiple rounds of thunderstorms are most likely between 4 PM and 11 PM, with showers lingering overnight before clearing out by early Wednesday morning. Most of the city will see 1 to 1.5 inches of rain, but spots that get hit with repeated downpours could see 2.5 to 3.5 inches. That's enough to cause flash flooding in low-lying and poor drainage areas, plus ponding on roads and underpasses. The strongest storms could also bring wind gusts of 40 to 60 mph, capable of causing damage, downing tree limbs, and even some hail. If you live in a basement or a home that floods frequently, know your exits and be ready to move to a higher floor when heavy rain begins. Never stay in or re-enter a flooded basement. Never drive, walk, or swim through floodwaters. Turn Around, Don't Drown. If you hear thunder, go inside and stay away from windows. And bring in or tie down anything loose outside: trash cans, furniture, umbrellas. No watches or warnings are in effect right now. We'll keep you posted as the forecast develops. Check weather.gov/nyc for the latest and sign up for alerts at nyc.gov/notifynyc. 📲

Excited to join in the Groundbreaking Ceremony of River Commons, a 328-unit affordable housing development in the west Bronx that includes the Bronx Works Empowerment Center, a new outpatient public health clinic, an outdoor public plaza and the first-ever African Resource Center. This important investment was a result of the Jerome Neighborhood Plan that recognizes the need for affordable housing with amenities that provide healthcare, wraparound services, enrichment opportunities and social services for our families. I’m proud to have supported River Commons from the beginning, investing $500,000 to Bronx Works, and thank our city agencies and partners for the support of this project. We look forward to the official ribbon-cutting! #Bronx #RiverCommons
