The radar
The Boston radar (KBOX), 96 km from the middle of the area, began a volume at 12:39 UTC, the scan nearest the moment this went out.

The archived warnings, watches and discussions in force at that minute are drawn over the scan, this one among them.
Did it verify
Not verified. The Iowa Environmental Mesonet's Cow found no qualifying storm report inside this flash flood warning while it was in force. That is not proof nothing happened: reports are thin where few people live.
Cow counts a report within 15 km of the polygon while the warning was in force: a tornado for a tornado warning; hail of 1 inch or more, a gust of 58 mph or more or wind damage for a severe thunderstorm warning; a flash flood report for a flash flood warning.
The nearest sounding before it
Brookhaven, NY (KOKX), launched 12:00Z, 0.6 hours before the alert went out and 97 km from the middle of its area. This is the routine balloon launch nearest before it, the air the forecaster had in hand, not a measurement taken for the alert.

JTWhat forecasters said that day
The local office's own words before this flash flood warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS New York, NY wrote its last area forecast discussion before this flash flood warning went out at Jan 10, 7:22 AM EST, 14 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Jan 10, 7:22 AM EST, 14 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service New York NY
722 AM EST Wed Jan 10 2024
.SYNOPSIS...
The low pressure system slowly moves across Southeast Canada
today into tonight and eventually weakens. Low pressure slowly
moves within Southeastern Canada Thursday and Thursday night while
continuing to weaken. Another strong low pressure system will
likely bring heavy rain and high winds to the area Friday night
and Saturday. Arctic high pressure builds toward the region
Saturday night into Sunday. Another low may affect the region
Monday and Tuesday.
&&
.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...
Slight adjustments were made to the forecast database to better
match with observed trends. Some rain showers are already
developing and moving into the region from the west but are
pretty light with low reflectivities on Doppler radar.
Low pressure moves northeast of the region with central pressure
still near or just below 980mb.
Associated cold front moves across this morning with more
westerly flow developing behind it. With pressure rises moving
into place, would expect a very gusty day with increasing
boundary layer depth.
Taking into account both NAM and GFS BUFKIT forecast soundings,
taking midway between the mean mixed layer winds and top of the
boundary layer, getting many locations getting to around 40 kt
for wind gusts this afternoon.
Therefore, gusts up to 45 to 50 mph are expected and with
saturated grounds, trees may be more easily downed by these wind
gusts. This is why the wind advisory was issued.
There may be somewhat of a lull in the winds this morning before
more gusty winds develop this afternoon. The peak gusts are
expected mid to late this afternoon.
The wind advisory is in effect for the entire area, until 8pm
this evening.
Otherwise, there may be a few rain showers from time to time
with passing vort max in the mid levels. Temperatures generally
in the upper 40s to lower 50s for highs.
&&
.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH 6 PM THURSDAY/...
Low pressure fills in and weakens as it moves into Southeast
Canada.
Pressure gradient lowers with gusts gradually lowering in
magnitude. Breezy conditions expected to remain. Temperatures
remain above normal but will be cooler Thursday than the
previous day. Dry conditions expected. More sun expected
Thursday compared to the previous day.
&&
.LONG TERM /THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY/...
Another strong storm likely impacts the region late Friday into
Saturday with another round of moderate to heavy rainfall, and
strong, to potentially damaging winds, along with a coastal flooding
threat.
Another southern stream trough will be moving onshore of the Pacific
northwest midweek and track across the country, reaching toward the
Great Lakes Region late in the week. With some of the global
guidance the upper trough is becoming more negatively tilted during
Friday, keeping the surface low a little farther to the west. Timing
of the heaviest rainfall and highest winds remains Friday night into
Saturday as a low level jet of 50-70kts moves through the region.
Also, an occluded low will be moving over the region late Friday
night into Saturday morning. Strong lift, and some instability,
along with elevated CAPE up to 500 J/kg will allow for a chance of
thunderstorms. Precipitable waters also increases late Friday night,
up to 1.35 inches, and a period of moderate to heavy rainfall
remains possible. The is the potential for another flooding event as
WPC has placed most of the area in a slight risk for excessive
rainfall. Finally, with the strong winds another high wind event is
also becoming more likely. While there are a few days until the
onset of this storm impacts are becoming more likely.
Strong cold advection Saturday, behind a cold front, will be the
leading edge of an Arctic airmass that will be over the region
Sunday into Monday, with temperatures falling to near or just below
seasonal normals.
After a brief dry period another southern stream system may impact
the region Monday into Tuesday.
&&
.AVIATION /12Z WEDNESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
A cold front will move across eastern Long Island and CT early this
morning. Otherwise, the associated strong low pressure system
extending from New England and upstate New York into Ontario will
slowly pull way from the area through tonight.
VFR attm except for KGON, which should remain LIFR until fropa by
14Z. A few light AM showers are possible that should not lower
flight cat.
WSW flow is taking longer to increase than originally expected,
but should reach 20G30-35kt between about 16Z-17Z and 00Z-01Z
give/take an hour. WSW to W winds then slowly diminish tonight.
...NY Metro (KEWR/KLGA/KJFK/KTEB) TAF Uncertainty...
Unscheduled AMD still possible through the AM push for changing
conditions.
OUTLOOK FOR 12Z THURSDAY THROUGH SUNDAY...
Thursday: VFR. WSW winds 10-15kt. Ocnl G15-20kt.
Friday: VFR early, becoming MVFR or lower with rain. Increasing SE
winds late.
Friday night: MVFR or lower. SE winds 15-25kt G30-40kt.
Saturday: MVFR or lower with rain. SE winds 20-30kt G30-40 kt,
becoming W 20-25kt G30-35kt.
Sunday...VFR. W 20-25kt G30-35kt.
Detailed information, including hourly TAF wind component forecasts,
can be found at: https:/www.weather.gov/zny/n90
&&
.MARINE...
Gale warnings remain in place across all waters.
Gales on all waters through 10 PM this evening. Ocean waters
have gales until midnight tonight.
Thereafter, SCA conditions likely on the ocean through Thursday.
For non-ocean waters, SCA conditions likely overnight tonight
and probable for Thursday. The gusts for non-ocean waters
Thursday may be more occasionally getting to 25 kt with more
gusts to near 20 kt.
Ocean seas build to 15 to 20 ft into today, then lower to
generally near 10 to 15 ft tonight and then subside slowly to 5
to 8 ft Thursday.
Winds and seas decreasing west to east during Thursday night
but SCA conditions will likely remain on the ocean.
An increasing southeast flow ahead of the next strong low will
allow for gale conditions to develop Friday night across the
forecast waters. There is a chance of storm force gusts on the
ocean waters Saturday into Saturday night as gale condition
continue on the non-ocean waters. Gales are likely behind the
low Sunday, with conditions gradually improving Sunday night as
high pressure builds toward the waters from the southwest.
&&
.HYDROLOGY...
Flood watch has been cancelled with additional rainfall expected
to be light and not pose any additional flood threat.
Flood hazards (accounting for both advisories and warnings) are
in effect for much of the forecast region within NE NJ, NYC,
parts of the Lower Hudson Valley, Western Long Island and within
Southern CT. Area rivers are experiencing mostly minor flooding
but there are some experiencing moderate to major.
Hydrologic impacts remain possible Friday night into Saturday, as
the Weather Prediction Center has much of the area in a slight risk
for excessive rainfall, with another round of moderate to heavy rain
possible. One to two inches, with locally higher amounts remains
possible. However, the exact magnitude and extent of the flooding
issues are uncertain this far out.
&&
.TIDES/COASTAL FLOODING...
Significant ocean dunefront damage expected today. Widespread
minor to moderate coastal flooding with Wed AM high tide.
Localized major coastal flooding will be possible, especially
within the South Shore Bays of Long Island.
SE storm force expected overnight into early today, with a
windshift to west southwest gale likely just before the time of
high tide for most areas. This windshift will likely limit
potential for locally major coastal flooding to just the Great
South Bay of LI. Elsewhere, widespread moderate flooding likely
for southern bays of NYC/LI and eastern bays of LI, and SE CT.
Elsewhere generally minor flooding.
Along the oceanfront, potential for 15-20 ft surf causing
widespread dune erosion and scattered overwashes Wed AM.
Localized dune inundation/breaches possible where dunes have
been compromised by earlier storm events. 10 to 15 ft breaking
surf expected with Wed PM high tide, and with lower water
levels, expect dune impacts to be lower magnitude and less
widespread.
Coastal flood impacts are possible around the times of high
tide Friday night and Saturday with another deep low tracking
west of the area.
