“It’s up to my knees!” Video shows torrential flooding in Orange County, New York, on Sunday as severe storms hit the Northeast, killing one person and swamping roadways.
Heavy rain spawned extreme flooding in New York's Hudson Valley north of New York City that killed at least one person, swamped roadways and forced road closures Sunday night. Much of the rest of the Northeast U.S. also got hit with downpours.
The police chief of the town of Highlands, Frank Basile Jr., said in a statement to CBS News that the woman was also trying to evacuate her father. There was no word on his fate or whether he was one of the two people who escaped the rushing waters. The extent of the destruction from the slow moving storm, which pounded the area with up to 8 inches of rain, won't be known until later Monday. But officials said the storm had already wrought tens of millions of dollars in damage.
More than 1,000 flights scheduled to fly into or out of Laguardia, John F. Kennedy or Newark airports had been canceled as of Sunday night, according to FlightAware.com. Some 262 more had been canceled or delayed at those three airports and Boston's Logan Internatinoal as of 7:15 a.m.,New York Gov. Kathy Hochul confirmed to WCBS radio that several people were missing and one home was washed away.
