UNDATED Ongoing flooding across portions of northeastern Massachusetts is on pace to break records dating back decades.

National Weather Service meteorologist Charlie Foley says flooding for the Merrimack Valley may exceed flooding recorded during the 1938 hurricane.
On September 21st, 1938, a hurricane slammed the coast, killing between 500 and 700 people and washing away hundreds of beach front homes.
In the spring of 1936, heavy rainstorms over a 13-day period caused heavy flooding in New England, causing between 150-and-200 deaths.



Doesn't seen to be any casualties from what I'm seeing. Not much has been reported about this.

I don't live where they got walloped by the rain but I haven't heard too much about it (and I live int he state). I know Teddy went out to one of the towns to inspect some flood damage the other day but that is about it.

My town didn't experiance any of the severe flooding but the surronding towns did. It is supposed to be the worst flooding in 70 years. Luckily no one was hurt as far as I know but the damage is supposed to be 10s of millions. Apparently the government is working fast to help the people so that is good.
