"Eastern U.S. reeling from record flooding"

"Philadelphia -- The worst flooding in the eastern United States in decades, triggered by days of torrential rain, has killed at least nine people and forced thousands to flee their homes.
With roads washed out and waters rising, authorities yesterday declared emergencies across swaths of New Jersey, New York, Maryland and Pennsylvania.
Up to 200,000 people in Wilkes-Barre, Pa., and the surrounding area were ordered to leave their homes before sundown yesterday as the Susquehanna River rose to dangerous levels threatening to overwhelm a flood-control system. Reuters"
