Flood Watch in Effect for Queens

Rains expected to last into Monday

In case you hadn't noticed, Sunday night has seen rain—and bucket loads of it.

The National Weather Service has issued a flood advisory, currently in effect until 3 a.m. Monday morning, with potential for up to an inch of rain per hour. The rains are forcasted to ease up by Monday afternoon.

The NWS advises people not to drive where water covers the roadway and to be aware that the heavy rains can cause flooding of streets, lowy lying areas, drainage points and underpasses.

When the rain passes and you start to make your way outdoors, upload pics of the aftermath around Douglaston and Little Neck right here. Just click on the "Upload Photos and Videos" button above and show us what you're seeing.

The local, fresh fruit and vegetable market was a worthwhile addition to Douglaston. Obviously, itRead More did not receive the support of the community, at least not enough to make it a successful venture. This is sad. Every Sunday, rain or shine, I would stop at the market and purchase something. My favorite was the bakery stand. Often, when I stopped in the afternoon I would get two FREE French breads with my purchase. Parking was never a problem. The vendors where friendly and very informative. It was a perfect setting for the picturesque nature of this community. Too bad it is not returning.

Unfortunately, according to the Douglas Manor Association, the fresh fruit and vegetable market willRead More NOT return this year. No specific reason was given other than this was at the initiative of the merchants or the market's organizers. And this..., just as we were beginning to enjoy the Long Island wines and the $34 per pound skirt steak, ordered two months in advance.
