Strong winds and rain are expected to hit New York City on Monday as a cold front moves across the region, bringing with it rain and thunderstorms. The main threat will be localized damaging wind gusts, which can lead to urban flooding. Empty tractor-trailers and tandem trucks will be banned on MTA bridges due to high winds expected to reach 50 mph. Temperatures will remain mild, but the mercury will only reach the 40s on Tuesday.
