Good morning.
Some of the worst flooding in 200 years continues to make life miserable for many in Rhode Island, Massachusetts and elsewhere in New England.
The main headline at The Providence Journal's website this morning says it all: "Video: Ocean State Under Water: Flooding From The Air."
The Boston Globe says that the rains may be abating, but rivers and creeks continue to rise.
"The rain has stopped, but this event isn't over by a long shot,'' Peter Judge, a spokesman for the Massachusetts Emergency Management Agency, told the Globe. "More and more rivers are rising. It may not be until the beginning of next week when they return to below-flood levels. They have a way to go.''
On Morning Edition, Anthony Brooks reported from Providence on the huge problems all that water is creating:
