Floods From Eloise Cause Deaths and Widespread Damage
Floodwaters from Tropical Storm Eloise receded across the Northeast as thousands return home. At least 10 people died, with Pennsylvania reporting six dead and over 6,000 homeless amid more than 100 million dollars in damages. National Guardsmen patrolled Harrisburg but were later deactivated. Notices warn of water supply contamination and long term shellfishing impacts in Chesapeake Bay. The New York Thruway reopened after flood closures, a 14-year-old remained missing in Watertown, and President Ford offered federal disaster aid for 21 counties. The flood was marked as Pennsylvania’s third-worst on record.
