Northeast Storms Leave Destruction in Wake | Austin News

Northeastern U.S. reeled from a brutal storm blast Thursday—heavy rain, howling winds, and possible tornadoes and waterspouts tore through Long Island, shredding beaches and beach clubs. In New Jersey, flash floods trapped dozens in cars, forcing boat rescues. Delaware saw a confirmed tornado in Dover, downing trees and flooding streets with no major injuries, but power outages hit hard. NWS had warned of waterspouts, and while Long Island’s twister wasn’t officially confirmed, the damage told its own story. Storms were moving east, easing up—but this was a stark reminder of nature’s fury and the speed at which communities must respond.
