 MAMARONECK, N.Y. (AP) - As the floodwaters receded Tuesday homeowners picked through ruined belongings and priceless keepsakes trying to determine what they'd lost.
Hundreds of thousands were still without power from Maine to North Carolina and nearly as many residents of Bound Brook, N.J., were still barred from their homes Tuesday as flooding persisted from the spring nor'easter that has claimed at least 17 lives.
In Mamaroneck, described by Gov. Eliot Spitzer as the "the epicenter of the damage done here in the state," discarded belongings damaged by the flooded Sheldrake River lined an avenue.
