A powerful nor'easter is battering the northeastern United States, triggering widespread flooding, power outages affecting over 88,000 homes and businesses, and the cancellation of more than 400 flights as of Saturday afternoon.
Emergency Declarations and Widespread Disruption
Governors of New York and New Jersey declared states of emergency on Friday for counties expected to face the storm's worst impacts, including New York City. Authorities have warned residents to stay away from beaches and flooded areas, with Governor Kathy Hochul stating that anyone near the water is 'literally gambling with their life.'
The storm has caused significant disruption to travel and events. Approximately 425 flights have been cancelled and 1,338 delayed on Saturday, according to FlightAware data. Concerts and sporting events have also been called off, including musician Ed Sheeran's scheduled shows in Massachusetts.
Storm Conditions and Community Impact
Bob Oravec, lead forecaster with the National Weather Service, said the storm is likely to persist with high winds, high tides, and heavy rain over the next few days. While nor'easters are not unusual for New England in autumn, he noted that 'this might be a little earlier than average for a big storm.'
Residents in Ocean City, Maryland, reported that water in canals has risen significantly and is entering backyards. Meanwhile, people have been seen kayaking down flooded streets in Long Island, New York, while others took advantage of large swells in Hampton, New Hampshire.
Power Outages and Flight Cancellations
Power outages affecting more than 88,000 homes and businesses as of Saturday afternoon local time. That figure is down from a high of 119,000 earlier in the day. The number of outages has decreased as crews work to restore service across the affected areas.
The storm's impact on air travel continues to mount. More than 400 flights have been cancelled, with the total reaching 425 cancellations and 1,338 delays on Saturday alone. The disruption is expected to continue as the storm system moves through the region.
