Isaias – pronounced ees-ah-EE-ahs – could bring heavy rains, too – up to 8 inches in spots as it moves up the coast, Brown said, and “all those rains could produce flash flooding across portions of eastern Carolinas and mid-Atlantic, and even in the northeast U.S.” Flood watches were posted all the way from the Carolinas to New England. In all, some 55 million people live where flood watches are in effect. These watches include the Washington D.C., Baltimore, Philadelphia and New York City metro areas.

There could also be power outages and some tree damage in areas that experience stronger wind gusts along the East Coast,said. This includes areas from the eastern Carolinas to the coastal mid-Atlantic, New York City, Long Island and parts of eastern New England.
