Story summary

On August 4, 2020, the remnants of Hurricane Isaias were forecast to bring heavy rainfall and potential flooding to a vast area along the East Coast of the United States. The storm system was expected to impact millions from Florida up through New England, with warnings issued for states including North Carolina, Virginia, Maryland, Delaware, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, New York, Connecticut, Rhode Island, Massachusetts, and Maine. Emergency managers urged residents in low-lying areas and near rivers and streams to take precautions such as moving valuables to higher ground and preparing emergency kits, given the risk of flash flooding and power outages due to strong winds and heavy rain.
