New Jersey remains under a state of emergency Tuesday after flash flooding devastated many communities Monday night, especially in Union and Somerset counties. Gov. Phil Murphy toured some of the damage Tuesday morning in Berkeley Heights.

Two people died when flash floods struck New Jersey on Monday, submerging cars, flooding roadways and canceling flights. The victims were killed when their car was swept into Cedar Brook in Plainfield, city officials said. This comes days after two others were killed in severe storms in Plainfield on July 3.

Governor Phil Murphy issued a state of emergency, calling on residents to avoid unnecessary travel and to stay indoors.
