Powerful storm batters Northeast US, flights canceled
A powerful nor'easter has brought heavy rain, strong winds, and flooding to the northeastern United States, disrupting travel and leaving thousands without power. Cities like New York, Boston, and Philadelphia are experiencing significant impacts, with coastal areas facing major flooding due to high tide cycles. The National Weather Service has warned of repeated rounds of flooding throughout the weekend, particularly in low-lying areas near the shore. As of Saturday afternoon, over 95,000 people across multiple states were without electricity, and hundreds of flights were canceled, including 253 at Boston Logan Airport.
