Tropical Storm Fay rolled through the tri-state region Friday, churning northward with winds up to 60 miles per hour and heavy rains that caused flash flooding before it made landfall in northeast New Jersey shortly before 5 p.m.
Fay, a system that started developing off the coast of North Carolina, became the first tropical storm to make landfall in the region since Irene in 2011.
Landfall was recorded approximately 10 miles northeast of Atlantic City around 4:50 p.m., but its power was felt well before then. Most of the tri-state had a thorough soaking by 4 p.m. with many spots, including Central Park, recording two or more inches of rainfall.
