A potent September nor’easter was building along the East Coast, threatening the region with heavy rain, powerful winds, high waves and coastal flooding.

NBC News described the storm as a rare September nor’easter capable of producing damaging winds. NBC New York forecast wind gusts of up to 50 mph for parts of Long Island and New Jersey, while Spectrum News NY1 said New York City could face gusty winds and coastal flooding.

Waves were already pounding some East Coast beaches as the storm approached, according to CBS News. The Washington Post also forecast heavy rain, winds and waves along the storm’s path.
