The Latest on massive winter storm in the Northeastern U.S.
The hurricane-force storm that roared up the East Coast, dumping as much as 18 inches (46 centimeters) of snow from the Carolinas to Maine, also has unleashed record flooding.

The Republican governor of Massachusetts told reporters Thursday that the flooding resulting from a “historic high tide” led to the deployment of a number of National Guard high-water rescue vehicles to help stranded residents and vehicles.

Gov. Charlie Baker says weather officials believe Massachusetts experienced the highest high tide on record in the state.

Maine has seen the most tidal flooding in 40 years. The high tide in Portland on Thursday was 13.79 feet, nearly reaching the 14.17 foot mark reported during the Blizzard of 1978.

New Hampshire's Seacoast area saw flooding in streets and people's basements.
