Philippe, the Post-Tropical Cyclone, Threatens New England and Canada with Heavy Rainfall

Philippe has weakened from a tropical storm to a post-tropical cyclone, but it is still expected to bring strong winds and heavy rain to parts of the U.S. Northeast and Canada's southeast Atlantic coast. The storm is forecasted to reach New England and eastern Atlantic Canada late Saturday or early Sunday, with the potential for flash flooding in upstate New York, New England, and eastern Maine. While the impact is not expected to be as severe as last month's record rainfall, New York Gov. Kathy Hochul has warned residents to be prepared for possible flash flooding, particularly in high-risk areas.
