Ida Causes Havoc In The Eight Villages

September 3, 2021 General News

A number of water rescues were necessary between September 1 and 2 as a result of the floodwaters spurred by Ida.

The remnants of Hurricane Ida roared into the township on September 1, dropping torrential rain and causing the Millstone River to rise to nearly historic levels, spurring what one township official called “catastrophic” flooding.

Hurricane Ida made landfall in Louisiana on August 29, then made its way to the northeast, hitting our area as a tropical depression on September 1 before heading out to the Atlantic Ocean the next day.
