New Jersey was hit especially hard when the remnants of Ida brought flooding rains Wednesday.

The force of the flood was so severe, it knocked cars around like water toys in a bathtub in Clifton, flipping them on their sides and slamming them against fences and other vehicles.

Property can be replaced, but the storm also proved to be deadly in nearby Passaic.
