Heavy rain caused flash flooding, stranded vehicles and water rescues in New Jersey, Vermont and New York; about 50 people were rescued by speedboat. Parts of Connecticut received nearly seven inches of rain, while New Jersey also faced power outages.

The wider flooding has created immediate threats to life and disrupted transport and essential services across several states.
