The remnants of Hurricane Ida wreaked havoc on New York City on Wednesday night and the early hours of Thursday, causing massive flooding and at least nine deaths in the metropolitan area, which includes New Jersey.

The storm left a large swath of destruction across several states, leaving more than 200,000 homes in New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania without power by Thursday morning. Some of the worst damage occurred in New York City. Flooding caused mass transit shutdowns, especially in water-filled subway stations, and many motorists were stranded on the roads.
The National Weather Service issued its first-ever flash flood emergency for New York City, and Central Park set a record with nearly 7 inches of rain on Wednesday.
