An unsettled weather pattern will take over the tri-state for most of the week ahead. Nearly every day brings the chance for showers and storms, some of which may be strong to severe and produce locally heavy rainfall.
After some parts of the tri-state saw powerful storms — including heavy rains on Long Island and stronger cells in Central and South Jersey — the chances for severe weather dwindled overnight into Tuesday as a coastal low off New England weakens and retreats.
Most of Tuesday will be rain-free. Scattered storms will return by evening, becoming more widespread overnight. Storms will probably linger into the Wednesday morning commute, producing locally heavy rainfall. Scattered showers and storms will continue through the day Wednesday ahead of a cold front.
