A strong low pressure system moved from the Ohio Valley to the East Coast and reformed as a powerful nor'easter while moving into New England. This provided the region with several hours of moderate to heavy rainfall. In addition to significant flash flooding around the area, widespread minor to moderate river flooding occurred on many of the larger, main stem rivers and their tributaries.
