"New York Braces for Another Weekend of Heavy Rain and Flash Floods Amid Criticism"

New York Gov. Kathy Hochul and New York City Mayor Eric Adams are warning residents of heavy rain in the state after facing widespread criticism for their handling of recent flash flooding. The warning comes as the remnants of post-tropical cyclone Philippe move north, bringing the potential for more rain and flooding. The eastern part of the state is at the greatest risk for floods, and residents are urged to be prepared. Last week, officials were criticized for not adequately warning residents ahead of heavy rainfall that led to severe flash flooding in parts of the state.
