Heavy rain is forecast with additional accumulations of 2 to 3 inches.
The showers will be particularly intense during the afternoon and evening of this Wednesday, so the journey home could be complicated.
Additionally, the National Weather Service issued a flood warning in coastal areas for the same days mentioned, and an alert for strong winds, with gusts that at times could reach 60 miles per hour.
The MTA temporarily banned unoccupied heavy-duty trucks from passing through the city’s bridges.
New Yorkers are asked to use caution when walking, biking or driving.
