Tropical Storm Henri Churns Through Wyckoff

The storm brought over four inches of rain to Wyckoff, with over five inches reported in neighboring Oakland.

WYCKOFF, NJ — Power outages and flooding peppered much of North Jersey as Tropical Storm Henri moved through the area, dropping heavy amounts of rain.

The National Weather Service reports that Wyckoff saw over four inches of rain as of Monday morning, with Franklin Lakes reporting just under five inches, and Oakland nearly six inches of rain.

That likely won't be the last of the rain either, as the New York, New York office of the National Weather Service predicts more showers and thunderstorms in the region, which bring with them a risk of flash flooding.
