Post-tropical cyclone Debby wreaked havoc as it moved up the East Coast, causing severe flooding and damage in several states. The storm, which originated as a hurricane in Florida, continued to unleash tornadoes and heavy rainfall as it made its way towards Canada.
In New York, south-central areas experienced some of the worst flash flooding, leading to evacuations and rescues by helicopter. Villages and hamlets in rural regions south of the Finger Lakes were particularly hard hit, with reports of impassable roads and damaged homes.
