HOBOKEN, NJ — As much as 2 inches of rain could fall in Hoboken all day Thursday as a Halloween Eve storm arrives, forecasters say.

In Hoboken, officials say that low-lying areas tend to flood when more than 0.8 inches of rain falls in an hour.

Meanwhile, Hurricane Melissa was expected to veer away from the Northeast, after drenching Jamaica. "Remain in your safe shelter," said the National Hurricane Center on Monday afternoon. Anything can change. See the storm track here.
