Trains were canceled and flights were grounded across the New York City region Saturday as Hurricane Henri made its way up the East Coast.
MTA officials said commuter rail trains on the New Haven Lane and Wassaic Branch would be out of service on Sunday, along with Long Island Rail Road on the Montau Branch and to and from Greenport.
“The projected path of Hurricane Henri shows the most significant potential impacts will be to Metro-North customers in Connecticut, but current forecasts predict tropical storm force winds across our territory,” Metro-North President Catherine Rinaldi said in a statement while advising New Yorkers across the region to avoid taking public transit.
“Metro-North territory is particularly vulnerable to high winds due to trees and overhead power wires,” Rinaldi said. “Harlem and Hudson Line customers should avoid unnecessary travel.”
