Storm First Batter Eastern Seaboard in Broad Reach
A tropical storm battered the eastern seaboard causing widespread damage from Cape Hatteras to New Jersey. Nine people were near a shipwreck with perhaps 29 missing as the system swept ashore, capsizing vessels and flooding roads and tracks. Coasts warned, Ocean City banned baths, and rescue crews feared failing seawalls. In Chesapeake Bay a tug capsized with at least one death. Separate snow disrupted Montana and the Rockies.
