Flooding at the L train station in the East Village at 14th Street and 1st Avenue caused commuters to get their feet a little wet.
Video from Penn Station showed what appeared to be a waterfall of rain coming down while people waited for the next train.
Local southbound C and E trains ran on the express tracks during the downpour.
Drivers in Queens and Hoboken were also met with flooded streets:
Rain amounts of 1 to 2 inches will occur across much of Pennsylvania, New Jersey, the New York City area and southern and central New England, while higher amounts of 2 to 4 inches can occur over western and central Pennsylvania, also prompting concerns for flash flooding.
The remnants of Florence will merge with another system pushing through the Northeast and mid-Atlantic with a cold front.
In addition to the rain, expect high rip currents along the New York City, Long Island and New Jersey beaches.
