On Saturday, 26 September 2026, a nor’easter brought heavy rain and high tides that flooded roads in New Jersey, leaving several homes inundated by rising water.
The storm’s powerful winds and tide surge pushed water onto streets and into low‑lying residential areas, prompting residents to seek higher ground and authorities to close certain routes for safety.
Nor’easters are a common type of winter storm that can produce intense rainfall, strong winds and coastal flooding along the eastern United States, often causing widespread disruptions.
Images from the event show waves pounding the coast in Scituate, Massachusetts, as the tide rose during the same nor’easter, underscoring the storm’s reach across the region.
