Overview
- The nor'easter strengthened and slowed over the weekend, producing heavy rain, large waves and street-level flooding from New Jersey through New England and forcing widespread travel and event cancellations on Saturday.
- Authorities confirmed at least one storm-related death in New York City after a tree fell on a New York City Housing Authority employee during the storm.
- Tens of thousands of customers lost power across multiple states, with specialized trackers reporting outages in the range of roughly 75,000 to about 100,000 as crews worked to restore service.
- Hundreds of flights and ferry sailings were canceled, major concerts and events were called off, and professional sports schedules were altered as airports, islands and coastal venues paused operations.
- Officials warned that the storm's slow track and coincidence with high tides will likely produce more coastal flooding, beach erosion and downed trees, and FEMA plus local emergency teams remain on heightened posture with shelters and evacuations advised for low-lying communities.
