Heavy rain created extreme flooding in New York's Hudson Valley that killed at least one person
Extreme Flooding Overwhelms New York Roadways and Kills 1 Person
In New York’s Hudson Valley, rescue teams found the body of a woman in her 30s who drowned after being swept away while trying to evacuate her home, Orange County Executive Steven Neuhaus told WABC-TV. Officials were waiting for the medical examiner’s office to arrive, he said. The extent of the destruction from the slow moving storm, which pounded the area with up to 8 inches of rain, won’t be known until after sunrise, when residents and officials can begin surveying the damage. But officials said the storm had already wrought tens of millions of dollars in damage.
“We are in close communication with local officials and state agencies are participating in search and rescue efforts,” she said. West Point, home to the U.S. Military Academy, was severely flooded. Officials worry some historic buildings might have water damage.
