“Historic weather event” submerges New York City

Published

on

At least 24 people have died and thousands have been displaced following intense flash flooding in the US states of New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania

Basement apartments filled with water, subways were forced to close and roads became rivers in what is the aftermath of Hurricane Ida.

New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio described the scenes in his electorate as a “historic weather event”… following the National Weather Service issuing a flash flooding emergency warning for the first time ever.

Recovery efforts are continuing, with authorities working around the clock to restart the transportation systems that are used by millions of people daily.

The National Weather Service says the storm dumped around 7 centimetres of rain per hour between Philadelphia and New York City.

Meanwhile, thousands remain without power in Louisiana, with fears it could take weeks to restore power to residents in the state.

As I take leave of this sacred office, I wish you and your family all the best in the next four years. The American people – and people around the world – look to this house for steadiness in the inevitable storms of history, and my prayer is that in the coming years will be a time of prosperity, peace, and grace for our nation.

May God bless you and guide you as He has blessed and guided our beloved country since our founding.

Joe Biden 1-20-25.”
