Overview
- The storm, which intensified offshore Saturday and produced its peak impacts over the weekend, has begun drifting northeast and weakening with major wind and rain subsiding.
- At least one person was killed in Brooklyn when a falling tree struck a pedestrian during Saturday's high winds, and local officials issued state and county emergency declarations before the storm.
- Repeated high‑tide coastal flooding, trapped bays and widespread beach erosion hit shorelines from Delaware to coastal Maine with pockets of urban and flash flooding inland.
- Tens of thousands of customers lost power regionwide and hundreds of flights and outdoor events were canceled, while utilities and FEMA‑coordinated crews were pre‑staged to accelerate restorations.
- Forecasters expect impacts to taper through Monday and Tuesday but warn of lingering coastal flood risk on subsequent high tides and slower drainage from bays and saturated ground.
