New Jersey is under a state of emergency after a flash flood caused at least two deaths in Plainfield and damage across Union County.

In Plainfield, New Jersey, two people were killed when their car was swept into Cedar Brook, city officials said. This comes days after two others were killed in severe storms in Plainfield on July 3.

New York and New Jersey hit by torrential rain and flash floods, forcing highway closures, suspending subway lines and flight delays.
