• 'Once-in-a-generation' rainfall recorded in North Haledon as heavy rain hit New Jersey (wrnjradio.com) — North Haledon saw nearly five inches of rain Sunday morning, an amount climatologists say is roughly an 80‑year event and part of a worrying trend toward heavier downpours. Local Rutgers weather stations reported some of the state's highest totals, with nearby towns like Haworth and Little Falls also drenched as New Jersey's climate grows wetter and more flood‑prone.
