More on Wikipedia ↗The slow-moving storm, which killed a New York City housing authority worker when a tree fell Saturday, was expected to linger through Sunday with heavy rain, strong winds and dangerous surf from New Jersey to New England.
Tens of millions of people are in the path of the storm, which has canceled flights, concerts and sporting events.
The nor'easter causes another round of flooding in low-lying areas in New Jersey and New York City and knocks out power.
