I don't think dozens dead is accurate. Other NY & NJ reports say 8 or 9 dead in our area.

Not all areas flooded. Tornado hit certain spots only.

What was significant regionwide was the record-breaking amount of rain in a short period of time. The most rain in one hour in Central Park (in the middle of NYC), for example, in 200 years. Storm drains in some areas were simply overwhelmed.
