Hurricane Isaias Brings Rain to Brooklyn This Weekend
Brooklyn is set to experience the effects of Hurricane Isaias this weekend. Currently a Category 2 hurricane, Isaias is forecasted to strengthen into a major hurricane before making landfall near Pensacola, Florida, as a strong Category 1 storm. After landfall, the storm is expected to weaken and track northwest, bringing tropical moisture inland. For Brooklyn, steady rain and occasional downpours are anticipated from Sunday morning through midday Monday. Rainfall totals are projected to range from 0.5 to 2 inches, with heavier amounts likely south of the area. This marks the fifth consecutive weekend with measurable rainfall in the region.
