Massive flooding in New York and the tri-state yesterday. Did you get caught in any of that?

Man, oh man, the wind, the storm. It was like a

nor'easter, but it wasn't. I guess officially it wasn't a nor'easter, but nonetheless a huge front.

We had one to three inches of rain depending on where you were, but some of the low-lying areas,

like we know, southern Brooklyn, the coastal areas, they were under feet of standing water,

and people in basement apartments got really flooded.

At least two people have died that we know of, so our prayers for them.

Just awful, awful rain.

And speaking of awful rain, awful news in Jamaica, Hurricane Melissa causing at least 59 deaths that we know of so far because it's possible that as they get through all the destruction, the devastation they may find more people.

Just widespread destruction.

A mother talks about how she's helping her children through the disaster.
