New York, Northeastern Pennsylvania Flooded by Remnants of Tropical Storm Lee
The remnants of Tropical Storm Lee are playing havoc on Pennsylvania. Susquehanna River flood risk has forced the evacuations of over 120,000 people in the Wyoming Valley. The evacuation order lasts at least until September 11. The fear has become reality, and the Susquehanna is flooding throughout northeast Pennsylvania.
20,000 people have evacuated from Binghampton County, New York.
