Hurricane Ida has sent devastation to New York and New Jersey with the states declaring a ‘state of emergency’

According to CNN, Hurricane Ida has now claimed six lives, as a state of emergency is declared in New York City, where record-breaking rain flooded apartments and caused subway lines to suspend operations.

At least one person died in flash flooding that inundated the New Jersey city of Passaic, Mayor Hector Lora told CNN.

Mayor Lora of New Jersey confirmed that the body of an elderly man in his seventies was retrieved from floodwaters, while firefighters were able to rescue two others from the vehicle.

In New York City, which borders New Jersey at the Hudson River, Mayor Bill de Blasio declared a state of emergency for the region due to what he called a “historic weather event”

Record-breaking rain across the city has resulted in major flooding and dangerous conditions on the roads.

Nearly all New York City subway lines were suspended late on Wednesday as the remnants of Tropical Storm Ida brought drenching rain and the threat of flash floods and tornadoes to parts of the northern mid-Atlantic, CNN reported earlier.
