In New Jersey, 11 rivers reached or surpassed record levels and inundated thousands of homes and businesses, Governor Chris Christie said yesterday. Totowa, Fairfield and Woodland Park saw more evacuations yesterday because the Passaic River remained above flood stage, he said.

In Manville, as many as 10,000 people near the Raritan and Millstone rivers were affected. Businesses throughout Manville placed furniture on sidewalks as they bailed out.

"After the storm had passed, it's inland flooding that's the largest problem and we're seeing that right now," Christie said in a news briefing in Wayne.
