Rockland and Orange counties were under a tornado watch earlier today after meteorologists spotted three funnel clouds in the area. Although tornadoes never touched down locally, some school districts took precautions by prohibiting students from leaving buildings.
Instead of tornadoes, torrential downpours thundered down on the Hudson Valley and several notorious roadways experienced flooding, including the New York State Thruway in West Nyack.
