Episode Details

New Jersey’s recovering from a deadly double whammy: a searing heat wave that claimed 29 lives, mostly in homes without AC, followed by violent storms that knocked out power for hundreds of thousands—still flickering Tuesday afternoon. Wind gusts at Newark airport hit 71 mph, trees fell, and restoration crews are racing against the clock. JCP&L, under fire for its emergency response, aims to restore most power by Wednesday night, but some areas may wait until Thursday. Meanwhile, NJ Transit’s rails were derailed by flooding and canceled trains, while Monmouth County soaked in over six inches of rain—proof that climate change is turning extreme weather into the new normal.
