The flash flooding across the country over the last few weeks has been awful! We traveled to NJ on Monday to chase a major flash flooding event. North Plainfield, NJ got hammered with 6" of rain in just a few hours. A river running through the town made it to significant flood stage with feet of water being swept through the town! We captured the aftermath of cars, and heavy debris getting swept away and destroying people's front and backyards. We were saddened to hear 2 people died due to getting swept away and just a week or two ago in the same town, 3 people died from a big wind event doen there. We are heartbroken for these people with a huge cleanup process. Take a look below at some of what we captured
