Long Island is preparing to take a serious hit from Henri.

Warning signs advising drivers to “Avoid Travel Thru Monday” lit the Long Island Expressway during the dark, early morning drive, CBS2’s Jenna DeAngelis reported Sunday.

“The worst of the storm is yet to come,” Nassau Curran Executive Laura Curran told reporters early Sunday morning. “It may seem fine now, just a normal rain storm. But winds will pick up, there will be bands of extreme precipitation rain coming through. So if you can stay home and out of the rain inside, please do so that our crews, our first responders get where they need to go to be able to help people.”
