Heavy rain and strong winds pounded the Northeast U.S. on Thursday as severe storms tore through a Long Island beach, stranded dozens of motorists in New Jersey, and knocked out power in parts of Delaware’s capital city.
Photos and video shared on social media showed debris thrown into the air and pummeling rain as a possible tornado touched down at Atlantic Beach on Long Island’s outer barrier. The storm tore apart a major beach club, leaving broken beach chairs and wood beams littered across the shoreline.
