Woman swept away in rare NY flash flood emergency dies | NBC New York

A monster belt of thunderstorms has made a mess of New Jersey and New York, with the latter seeing a rare flash flood emergency urging people to move to higher ground and avoid travel.

The slow-moving storms soaked a large portion of the Hudson Valley throughout most of Sunday, among other regions of the tri-state. The deluge of rainfall has reportedly flooded a number of homes, caused mudslides and shutdown portions of major roadways.

The full extent of Sunday’s storms is still uncertain as rain continued dumping into the evening. Because of the slow nature of the storms, steady and sustained rainfall led to high accumulations and even bigger problems for people needing to get around.

  1. She passed away in fort Montgomery not highland falls I used to live in fort Montgomery. That road leads right to the Hudson River. That water was probably rushing like crazy. Shoulda been the first to evacuate R.I.P. 🙏🏼. I’m in highland falls now and we got 3.5 feet in our basement. The property is wreck. Fence blown out. Mud and rocks everywhere. We’ll be cleaning for weeks.

  2. Yea … I'll just keep my azz right here in Brooklyn … We get bad weather throughout the year, but not like this! 🤦🏽‍♀

  3. I feel so bad for the people who've suffered property damage as well to their homes and vehicles. Could be incredibly costly, especially if they don't carry flood insurance.

  4. God bless these people for not caring about there own needs and just want to reach out to president biden to not worry or be concerned for them just continue to send billions upon billions to Ukraine because they simply need it worse. God bless Ukraine. It's the only thing that Matters

  5. The Lord's Prophet who is here for the last 20 years was told by the Lord~~"Time of Grace is Ending"…."Time of Wrath is Beginning". Rev. 3, The Lord has an open door to speak to His Prophet. It's all the truth. Seek him.

  6. It's bad when you watch the news but you don't trust them enough to be sure that they are telling us the truth I don't even trust the weather reports any more
