The nor'easter of October 2019 is making landfall. This storm is bringing heavy rain, damaging winds, and thousands of power outages. Many wind and flood warnings are still in effect for various parts of the northeast. Late Wednesday into Thursday, more than 60 million Americans were in the direct path of a powerful nor'easter storm. The storm would bring extremely heavy downpour, damaging winds, and flooding in some areas. Especially down by the coastal areas, flooding and rough surf have become a huge concern. CBS News weather contributor Jeff Berardelli says, "This is going to be a record-breaking storm." The reason for this storm comes from Great Lakes and a storm that was moving up the eastern seaboard. These storms would then merge together to form a powerful nor'easter. Nor'easter of October 2019 making landfall Nor'easter October 2019 / CNN The worst of the nor'easter made its way through the northeast last night. However, it's still moving through and delivering quite the impact. The storm is coming with wind gusts up to 90 mph.

A bomb cyclone is "the rapid deepening of an extratropical cyclonic low-pressure area," according to Wikipedia. This explains the heavy rain, damaging winds, and flooding.
