Nor’easter batters the East Coast – New Jersey faces worst flooding ever (Latest update)

A powerful nor’easter is battering the U.S. East Coast, pushing ocean water into streets, flooding coastal communities, eroding beaches and dunes, knocking out power, and disrupting travel from Virginia to New England.

Along the Jersey Shore, communities including Surf City, Manasquan, Sea Bright, and Atlantic City are dealing with rising water as repeated high tides threaten to make flooding worse. In Delaware, Bethany Beach has closed its beaches after severe dune erosion, while dangerous surf and strong wind gusts continue along the coast.

The storm is also affecting Maryland and Virginia, where flooding, power outages, and saltwater intrusion have created problems for residents and utility crews. Farther north, strong winds are threatening Cape Cod, Martha’s Vineyard, Nantucket, eastern Long Island, and other parts of New England, with ferry and flight cancellations adding to the disruption.
