Flooding heavily impacts Burlington County, New Jersey
In Cinnaminson, a tractor-trailer crash is slowing traffic near Taylor's Lane and Route 130/Burlington Pike. CBS News Philadelphia reporter Ross DiMattei spoke with a repair technician who said he believes wet road conditions caused a tractor-trailer to slide off the road and into a utility pole after it was hit by another truck that ran a red light.
Flooding was reported at several Burlington County towns along the Delaware River and Route 130, including:
- Burlington City
- Burlington Township
- Delanco
- Delran
- Edgewater Park
- Mount Laurel
- Palmyra
- Riverside
- Riverton
- Willingboro
Dave Levinsky, the county's public information officer, said first responders rescued 77 people Tuesday night from vehicles trapped on flooded roads, including 60 people in Cinnaminson, 16 in Delran and one in Willingboro.
In Edgewater Park, residents of 15 homes in the Silver Park West community were evacuated due to flooding.
Flooding in Bristol, Pennsylvania
Tuesday night two elderly people had to be rescued from a flooded-out vehicle in Bristol, Pennsylvania.
Police at the scene said the car got stuck under the overpass of a bridge, where there was four feet of water. The pair was safely rescued, and police said one person is in stable condition while the other was treated at the scene.

Scattered showers continue Wednesday and Thursday, but the next chance for heavy storms comes later this week as the remnants from Debby reach the region.
