Flood watches have been posted for New York City and the Northeast as a wet and wild storm threatens to dump heavy rain on major cities and snow inland as it moves up the East Coast.
New York, Washington and areas along Interstate 95 could get between 2 to 3 inches (5 to 8 centimeters) of rain from the storm that sweeps out of the south and through interior parts of the Mid Atlantic and New England Sunday into Monday, said Brian Hurley, a senior branch forecaster with the US Weather Prediction Center.
