A nor’easter bringing heavy rain and strong winds has caused widespread flooding across New Jersey.

Conditions are particularly severe on Long Beach Island and around Barnegat Bay, where streets are submerged and powerful winds have damaged coastal areas.

The U.S. National Weather Service has warned that the coastal storm will continue to affect the East Coast through early Tuesday (October 14), bringing torrential rain, coastal flooding, high surf, dangerous rip currents, and strong winds.
