🌊 Flood Threats Hit New Orleans and New York: Cities Grapple with Rising Waters Major urban centers on both ends of the East Coast are under pressure as intense storms bring widespread flooding risks. 🚨 In New Orleans, days of heavy rain have triggered flash flood warnings, breaking decades-old rainfall records. Streets are inundated, and emergency alerts remain in effect. The National Weather Service has issued a Level 3 out of 4 flood risk across the region. 🌧️ Meanwhile in New York, the recent storm system has eased, but flood risks linger due to oversaturated soil and high river levels. Urban drainage systems remain under strain, and minor flooding is expected in low-lying and coastal areas through Tuesday. These extreme weather patterns once again highlight the vulnerabilities of America’s aging infrastructure and the growing need for climate-resilient upgrades. #FloodAlert #NewOrleans #NewYork #WeatherCrisis #ClimateAdaptation #InfrastructureReform #BETTRNews https://climatecrisis247.com/local/flood-threat-in-new-orleans-new-york/
