Warm and Rainy Weekend Weather In Eastchester

BRONXVILLE, NY — A rainy weekend in the Hudson Valley was prefaced by a warm Friday afternoon. Then showers started.

"Another half inch to an inch of rain seems likely, so 2019 will pick up right where 2018 left off," said Alex Marra and Bill Potter of Hudson Valley Weather.

That could cause low-lying and poor drainage flooding. The National Weather Service has issued a coastal flood statement in effect from 10 a.m. through noon Saturday for areas along western Long Island Sound. There are expected to be tidal departures of 1-1/2 to 2 feet above normal with localized values up to 2-1/2 feet.

And just north of the Hudson Valley, there could be some wintry mix in that precipitation.

Here's what the National Weather Service predicts for the weekend in southern Westchester:

• Saturday: Rain. High near 45. Northeast wind 7 to 11 mph. Chance of precipitation is 90%. New precipitation amounts between a half and three quarters of an inch possible.
• Saturday Night: A 30 percent chance of rain before 9pm. Cloudy, then gradually becoming partly cloudy, with a low around 35. Northwest wind 7 to 9 mph, with gusts as high as 20 mph.
• Sunday: Mostly sunny, with a high near 44. Wind chill values between 30 and 35. Northwest wind 11 to 17 mph, with gusts as high as 31 mph.
• Sunday Night: Mostly clear, with a low around 23. Northwest wind 8 to 17 mph, with gusts as high as 29 mph.
