New York breaks city's rainfall record with nearly eight inches soaking city

New York breaks city's rainfall record with nearly eight inches soaking city: "It was the most recorded there in a single day since the National Weather Service began keeping records 116 years ago.

The heavy tropical rain is expected to continue Monday, and a flash flood warning is in effect until 9 p.m.

The normal rainfall for all of August in New York is 4 inches - which means the city was socked with two months worth of rain in a single day."
