Nor’easter storm floods coastal areas from New Jersey to New England
A powerful nor'easter storm battered the US Northeast coastline from New Jersey to New England for a second day on Sunday, causing widespread flooding and knocking out power to tens of thousands of homes. Tidal surges inundated low-lying areas in New Jersey, while strong winds downed trees and utility poles on Long Island, New York. The slow-moving system brought heavy rain and dangerous surf, with some areas experiencing flooding not seen in a decade. While the storm was expected to weaken, officials warned of potential further flooding during high tide on Monday. The storm also caused flight cancellations and delays along the East Coast.
