Tropic storm Isaias whips up eastern US, killing at least 6
WINDSOR, N.C. (AP) _ At least six people are dead after Tropical Storm Isaias spawned tornadoes and dumped rain during an inland march up the U.S. East Coast.
Two people were killed after one of those tornadoes flattened a mobile home park in Windsor, North Carolina.
Another person died in Pennsylvania when their vehicle was overtaken by water and swept downstream.
Two others were killed when the storm sent trees crashing onto their vehicles in New York City and Maryland, and a sixth person died when a tree branch fell on them in Delaware. Isaias made landfall as a Category 1 hurricane in North Carolina.
It was downgraded to a tropical storm on its way to the Northeast. The National Hurricane Center says late Tuesday night that Isaias is moving north into Canada.
