NJ communities are still drying out this morning after a punishing 24 hours of rain.
Published April 6, 2022A powerful weather system moved through the tri-state area Thursday afternoon and overnight into Friday, punishing parts of New Jersey and New York with more than 3 inches of rain within 24 hours, and prompting water rescues in the Garden State.
Several towns, including River Edge, Milford and Lodi, remained under several inches of water almost 12 hours after the rainfall let up. Overhead views from Chopper 4 Friday morning saw hundreds of flooded vehicles across the region, in addition to countless homes and businesses trying to dry out. Reports of several rescues came in early Friday as unsuspecting New Jerseayans were caught off guard by the rising waters.
"When I got up this morning, and I saw all the police cones out here, I said 'what happened.' Then I looked down here and I see all that flooding. Now, we all dealt with Hurricane Ida seven months ago and we lost everything. So seeing this again freaked me out," one Lodi resident told NBC New York.
