  • For the first time in 30 years, a hurricane has made landfall in New England. Tropical Storm Henri brought storm winds and heavy rain to Rhode Island Saturday.

    As a result of all of the rain, flooding is predicted in Long Island, eastern New York, northeastern Pennsylvania, and parts of New England. President Biden said FEMA is prepared to begin emergency assistance.

  • Major Hurricane Grace has already killed 8 and injured dozens during its second landfall in Mexico in two days. After the Yucatan Peninsula, now the veracruz area…

  • About five days ago, extreme flooding hit North Carolina, killing at least 2 and destroying 10-15 bridges after rain from Tropical Storm Fred.
