A Flash Flood Warning is now in place for New York city and the southern NY State.

According to CNN, flooding has closed roads, disrupted subway service and flooded basements in the New York City area after “dangerous and life-threatening” rainfall on Friday morning.

Floodwater spilled into subways causing “major disruptions” on nine train lines in Brooklyn and the weather also forced the closure of a LaGuardia International Airport terminal.

It also overwhelmed sewers and flooded roads in Brooklyn, Manhattan, Queens and Hoboken, New Jersey.

CNN says a month’s worth of rain – more than 4 inches – fell over parts of Brooklyn in just three hours.

Intense rainfall rates were also reported across the New York tri-state area and were expected to continue through Friday evening.
