STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. Rainfall hit Staten Island Wednesday afternoon amid a severe thunderstorm watch issued by the National Weather Service.
Brief hail was observed on the borough’s East Shore after 2 p.m. and wind gusts could be seen swaying trees as the storm rolled through.
The watch is in effect on the borough until 6 p.m., and a special weather statement issued by the agency indicates that wind gusts of up to 50 mph are possible with the storm.
Due to the high winds, the MTA is advising motorists to drive at reduced speed on the Verrazzano-Narrows Bridge. A 30 mph speed restriction has also been initiated by the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey.

“Closer to midnight we can see the sleet mixed in,” senior meteorologist Alan Reppert said.
While snow and sleet will continue past midnight, the borough could see some additional minor accumulation in the early-morning hours, with about an inch falling around 3 a.m., Reppert explained.
Forecasters had called for six inches to a foot.
“We a looking at probably close to 12 inches [of total accumulation],” Reppert said.
By 8 a.m. the snow will likely be gone from our skies, Reppert added.
