Storm Watch Team Meteorologist Sam Augeri says it will be an unsettled week with some days of heavy rain.

WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW: Storm Watch Team Meteorologist Julian Seawright breaks down the details of the impending storm.

HEADLINES:

• A mild and unsettled week on Long Island with a few rounds of rain into the weekend.

• Round 1: Rain after midnight through Tuesday. Expect showers and an easterly breeze from time to time with under 1 inch of rain expected. Nuisance rain with the wet weather tapering off by Tuesday evening.

• Round 2: Wednesday afternoon into Thursday afternoon. Potential for some moderate to heavy showers Wednesday night and Thursday morning. Rain totals 1 to 2 inches. Flood risk is still low with this system but there will be some bigger puddles around which will make travel a pain in the neck Thursday morning. Drying out by Thursday evening with nice weather Friday.

• Round 3: Rain developing by lunch time Saturday and continuing into Sunday morning. Still some questions with this storm but if we get some more heavy rain we could have some minor flooding around Long Island with the three rain events
