East Coast Prepares for Nor'easter with Wind, Rain, and Flood Warnings

Why it matters locally: Delaware, a coastal state, is directly in the path of the predicted nor'easter, and residents should prepare for strong winds, heavy rainfall, and potential flooding, particularly in low-lying areas and along the coast.

Millions of people along the East Coast are under warnings as a nor'easter approaches the region. Forecasters predict strong winds, heavy rainfall, and flooding potential with the storm's arrival. Officials have canceled scheduled events in anticipation of the weather. Organizers called off concerts as the storm system developed. Residents on islands near Cape Cod have moved to the mainland. These evacuations occurred in the days leading up to the nor'easter's expected impact.
