Urban areas, including New York City, are particularly vulnerable to flash flooding due to aging infrastructure that struggles to handle intense rainfall. Commuters in the Northeast may face significant disruptions during the evening rush hour. Damaging wind gusts could down trees and cause power outages, especially from southern New Jersey to Philadelphia, Baltimore, and Washington, D.C. Isolated tornadoes are also a concern in these regions. The combination of heavy rain and severe weather poses a heightened risk to public safety and property.
