The National Weather Service Wednesday afternoon lifted a flood advisory for portions of western Nassau County after storms tracked to the northeast.

Meteorologist Joey Picca of the Upton-based service said the advisory, originally scheduled to be in effect until 10 p.m., was rescinded based on the track of the fast-moving storm front.

Those storms passed over parts of New York City and western Nassau early Wednesday afternoon before moving west and northeast, Picca said.

But there could still be enough rain through the afternoon hours to produce "localized flash flooding," the service said.

The heaviest of the rains are likely for most of Nassau County, Queens and parts of New York City, the service said.

There's also a chance of scattered showers and thunderstorms in Suffolk County, forecasters said.

There were reports Wednesday afternoon of minor flooding on the Grand Central Parkway and the Long Island Expressway in Queens, according to the New York State Department of Transportation website, informny.com.

Traffic cameras at the site showed some minor flooding slowing traffic on the Grand Central Parkway, near where it merges with the Cross Island Parkway, at about 1:30 p.m.

Also, between exits 25 and 26 on the eastbound LIE, flooding slowed traffic in all lanes for about an hour, beginning at about 12:15 p.m.
