Super Soaker: Tropical Storm Fay Drenches Northeast UPDATE: Tropical Storm Fay continued drenching New Jersey as it blew north on Friday, churning the waves off the beaches, triggering flash floods in several areas and stoking the anxiety of those already shaken by the events of 2020.

Winds gusts as of early Friday afternoon topped out under 40 mph -- significantly less than the 60 mph that some had forecast -- and almost entirely along the coast, where the severest damage was expected. Several Jersey Shore towns wer…
