Track map of all storms known to have made landfall in the state of New York

Ninety-three subtropical or tropical cyclones have affected the state of New York since the 17th century. The state of New York is located along the East Coast of the United States, in the Northeastern portion of the country. The strongest of these storms was the 1938 New England hurricane, which struck Long Island as a Category 3 storm on the Saffir–Simpson hurricane scale. Killing more than 60 people, it was also the deadliest. Tropical cyclones have affected the state primarily in September but have also hit during every month of the hurricane season, June through November. Tropical cyclones rarely make landfall on the state, although it is common for remnants of tropical cyclones to produce heavy rainfall and flooding.

  • August 22, 2021: Hurricane Henri passes just east of Montauk Point as a tropical storm, but pummels Long Island and New York City with heavy rain.[117] Hurricane Henri's two day rainfall total in New York City was the largest since Hurricane Irene, and the rainfall total of 4.45 in (11.3 cm) on August 21 set a daily rainfall record. Most of Montauk shut down due to the hurricane.[118]
  • September 1, 2021: The extratropical remnants of Hurricane Ida approaches near the New York City metro area after it enters open waters, with heavy rainfall and flooding, a Tornado Watch was issued for the area. As the storm forced most of the subway system to shut down with many flooded stations. For the first time in the history of the city, New York City was put under a Flash Flood Emergency.[119] It is estimated that 16 people died in the state, 13 of those in New York City, including 11 from apartment basements flooding.[120] New York City recorded their wettest hour in history as 3.15 in (8.0 cm) of rain fell from 8:51 pm to 9:51 pm on September 1.[121]
  • October 26, 2021: Prior to acquiring subtropical characteristics, a Nor'easter that eventually formed into Tropical Storm Wanda would bring high winds and heavy rainfall across the northeast.[122] A man drowned in the Long Island Sound after attempting to kayak across the sound in the wake of the Nor’easter.[123]
  • August 30, 2023: Hurricane Franklin brought minor coastal flooding to Staten Island,[124] and the risk of rip currents from the system led to swimming being temporarily banned at Long Island beaches.[125]
  • September 15–16, 2023: Hurricane Lee causes beach erosion, gusty winds, and light rain to Eastern Long Island.[126]
  • September 28–30, 2023: The remnants of Tropical Storm Ophelia would be absorbed into a stalling low-pressure system causing immense rainfall, resulting in flooding across the New York City metropolitan area.[127] JFK Intl. set a new daily rainfall record previously set by Hurricane Irene in 2011. 8.05 in (205 mm) were reported on September 29.[128]
  • July 10, 2024: The remnants of Hurricane Beryl brings significant rainfall across the midwest and northeast,[129] spawning multiple tornadoes in Upstate New York.[130]
  • August 7–9, 2024: The tropical outer bands and eventually the remnants of Hurricane Debby brings heavy rainfall as it moves inland the East Coast causing flooding across the New York tri-state area and into Upstate New York,[131] leading to a State of Emergency being issued.[132]
  • August 17–18, 2024: Hurricane Ernesto brings life-threatening rip currents across the beaches of NYC and Long Island with swimming being temporarily banned.[133]
  • September 27–28, 2024: Fronts associated with the remnants of Hurricane Helene and its moisture brings light and scattered heavy rainfall across the tri-state area and Upstate New York.[134][135]
