We are still expecting a few rounds of showers and downpours heading into tonight. The storm system will continue to bring dreary conditions, poor visibility, wet roads, and strong wind gusts through the evening into the overnight hours.

Gusty winds will increase towards 40-50 mph later today, and a wind advisory is in effect for the entire region through 4 a.m. Tuesday.

Damaging gusts could take down tree limbs, old and weak trees and cause power issues along the way. Loose items, such as garbage can lids and kids' toys, could be tossed around if not secured down. Rainfall amounts could top over 1 inch before the system is done with us. Localized flooding will be an issue, especially in low-lying areas, such as southern Westchester County's numerous parkways.

Strong to severe storms are possible with those damaging wind gusts. Other threats, such as hail and tornadoes, are not a concern with the storm set up for today. The storm system will move out after the overnight hours, with the winds slowly backing down heading into Tuesday. As the system moves away, colder air will rush in and could mix in some snowflakes with the rain as the temperatures drop.

Tuesday is St. Patrick's Day. Many events/parades will be going on throughout the day. While the rain gear won't be needed anymore, you will have to wear an extra layer or two. That is because the breezy winds will make the temperatures feel chilly. Many spots could have temperatures feeling like they are in the 30s.

Wednesday is the coldest day of the week, with temperatures only topping out in the upper 30s. Temperatures will bounce back as we go through the rest of the work week.

Spring officially arrives this Friday, at 10:46 a.m., when the Vernal Equinox occurs. Spring showers move in for the late day hours and continue to linger through the weekend ahead.

TONIGHT: Mainly cloudy with scattered showers, possibly mixed with some snowflakes, as gusty winds linger and temps get colder. Lows: upper 20s to mid-30s.

TUESDAY: ST. PATRICK'S DAY - Breezy to gusty winds with a mix of sun & clouds. Highs: Low 40s. Lows: Low to mid-20s.
