Nor'easter brings heavy flooding, major power outages to the East Coast

SO THE PART THAT GOT ME IS THIS THE STORM IS ACTUALLY RAPIDLY INTENSIFYING RIGHT NOW AND FORECASTERS SAY IT IS TURNING SHARPLY BACK TOWARD THE NEW JERSEY COAST TO STALL OUT THROUGH MONDAY BEFORE LEAVING ON TUESDAY WHICH IS TERRIFYING BECAUSE IT ALREADY STARTED BY KNOCKING OUT POWER TO AROUND A HUNDRED THOUSAND PEOPLE ACROSS THE NORTHEAST AND THE MID-ATLANTIC AND FLOODING MOTELS IN EGG HARBOR TOWNSHIP WHERE THEY HAD TO RESCUE NINE ADULTS AND A DOG AND WATER IS COMING RIGHT INTO BACKYARDS IN MARYLAND AND IT HAS ALREADY TURNED FATAL IN BROOKLYN WHERE A FIFTY-SIX-YEAR-OLD CITY HOUSING AUTHORITY WORKER NAMED LEIGHTON BROWN WAS KILLED BY A FALLING TREE AND NOW MILLIONS OF PEOPLE ARE JUST BRACING FOR SEVERAL MORE DAYS OF HEAVY RAIN AND HIGH TIDES.

RIGHT I NEED THIRTY SECONDS OF YOUR LIFE BECAUSE AROUND ONE HUNDRED THOUSAND PEOPLE ARE ALREADY WITHOUT POWER ACROSS THE ENTIRE REGION AND TENS OF MILLIONS ARE RIGHT IN THE PATH OF THIS SLOW BRUTAL NOR'EASTER CREEPING ALONG THE EAST COAST AND THE WHOLE THING IS TURNING BACK TOWARD NEW JERSEY TO STALL OUT THROUGH MONDAY WHICH IS DANGEROUS BECAUSE IN BROOKLYN A FALLING TREE ALREADY STRUCK AND KILLED A FIFTY-SIX-YEAR-OLD CITY HOUSING AUTHORITY WORKER NAMED LEIGHTON BROWN AND OUT IN EGG HARBOR TOWNSHIP THEY HAD TO RESCUE NINE ADULTS AND A DOG FROM FLOODED MOTEL ROOMS WHILE MARINAS ARE FLOODING AND BOATS ARE BLOWING OFF LIFTS AND WATER IS RUNNING RIGHT INTO BACKYARDS IN MARYLAND AND FORECASTERS SAY UP TO FIVE INCHES OF RAIN AND HIGH TIDES ARE GOING TO KEEP HAMMERING THE COAST UNTIL TUESDAY.

A powerful nor'easter has caused widespread flooding, cut power to around 100,000 customers, and killed a municipal worker in Brooklyn as it stalls off the East Coast.
