New Jersey Transit has suspended the Morris and Essex train lines until further notice. 

According to its website, "flooding in Kearny has caused rail washouts making rail traffic impassable."

*NJ Transit's twitter account stated on Thurday, "I can assure you it will not be more than a week, possibly sooner."
