Is it summer yet? As if the long winter wasn't enough, this spring seems like it can't be any cooler or wetter. Get set for more: there's a flood watch for Northern Westchester from 6 a.m. Tuesday through late Wednesday night. According to the National Weather Service, a stationary storm is causing the nearly constant moisture through the middle of this week. Three to four inches of rain is expected to fall in the region on Tuesday, so pack the umbrellas!
