Flooding in New York as Hurricane Henri approaches north-east coast
The Guardian says Hurricane Henri was due to crash into the north-eastern US coast on Sunday, as heavy rain caused flooding in some areas of New York and nearby cities.
Millions on New York’s Long Island and in southern New England were braced for flooding, toppled trees and extended power outages.
With the centre of the storm projected to pass just off the eastern tip of Long Island by midday, hurricane warnings extended from coastal Connecticut and Rhode Island to near the old whaling port of New Bedford, Massachusetts, and across the luxurious oceanfront estates of New York’s Hamptons to the summer getaway of Fire Island.
