"Deadly Storm Ravages Northeast, Leaving Four Dead and Thousands Without Power"

A powerful coastal storm that swept across the East Coast left five people dead and over 400,000 customers without power, with most outages in Maine. The storm brought heavy rain, snowmelt, and strong winds from Florida to Maine, causing rivers to overflow and flood warnings to be issued. Excessive water from the storm continued to pour into rivers, with some not expected to peak until Tuesday night or early Wednesday. Record-high temperatures contributed to the intensity of the storm, and the warming climate in the region is leading to heavier precipitation events.
