Two Dead in New Jersey as Flash Floods Ravage😥⚡ US Northeast, More Rain Looms 🌧️⚠️
A powerful summer storm unleashed chaos across the US Northeast on Monday night, claiming two lives in Plainfield, New Jersey, when a vehicle was swept away by raging floodwaters. 🚗💦 The torrential downpour, which dumped over 2 inches of rain in a single hour, inundated New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and Maryland, submerging roads, flooding subway stations, and grounding flights. 🛑✈️
In New York City, videos showed water gushing into subway stations, with passengers trapped on trains as platforms turned into rivers. 🚇🌊 Major roads like the Bronx River Parkway and Cross Bronx Expressway were closed, and JFK, LaGuardia, and Newark airports halted departures, canceling dozens of flights. 🛬 Governor Phil Murphy declared a state of emergency in New Jersey, urging residents to stay indoors as the region braces for more rain through mid-week. 🏠
The National Weather Service warns of continued thunderstorms fueled by a moisture-rich airmass, raising fears of further flash flooding. 🌩️ “We’re getting dragged by climate,” Murphy said, highlighting the growing intensity of storms. In Lancaster, Pennsylvania, over 7 inches of rain fell in five hours, prompting 16 water rescues and a disaster declaration. 🚒
This follows devastating floods in Texas and North Carolina, underscoring the urgent need for climate-resilient infrastructure. As the Northeast cleans up and prepares for more wet weather, authorities urge drivers to “turn around” at flooded roads to prevent further tragedies. 🚨
