Three people killed in New York after severe thunderstorms with flash flood emergency issued: ‘Seek higher ground now!'
ONEIDA COUNTY, N.Y. – Severe thunderstorms contributed to three deaths in central New York and dumped up to 5 inches of rain on Sunday, prompting a rare Flash Flood Emergency as floodwaters covered roads and entered homes. Storm reports from the National Weather Service office in Binghamton, New York, show Oneida County's emergency manager reported three deaths after severe storms knocked down multiple trees onto at least two separate structures near Clark Mills, New York, just before 4 a.m. ET on Sunday. FOX Weather has reached out to Oneida County officials to independently confirm these storm-related fatalities. Oneida County officials said thunderstorms left more than 30,000 without power and caused significant damage in the towns of Kirkland, Lee, Westmoreland and Trenton. National Grid crews are working to restore power. 'We are doing everything we can to respond quickly and safely to the damage left by these storms,' Oneida County Executive Anthony J. Picente, Jr., said in a statement. 'Our emergency teams are on the ground clearing roadways, coordinating with utility crews and assessing the needs of affected communities. I urge everyone to stay alert, avoid downed power lines and give our crews the space they need to do their work.' The same storm system brought a deluge of rain to central New York throughout Sunday morning. 4 A flooded street in the village of Canastota, N.Y. on June 22, 2025.

'Our city will never look the same': Beltrami County declares emergency after devastating storm
'Our city will never look the same': Beltrami County declares emergency after devastating storm originally appeared on Bring Me The News. Beltrami County officials have declared a state of emergency following the ferocious winds and possible tornadoes that ripped through the area early Saturday morning. The declaration allows for an expedited disaster response as Bemidji and neighboring communities clean up and recover from the damage. Residents in the county were blasted by hurricane-force winds — including a 106 mph gust at the Bemidji Airport — in the middle of the night. Sunrise revealed thousands of downed trees and power lines, along with structural damage to homes and buildings. No injuries were reported. 'While I am happy no one was hurt, I'm sad our city will never look the same," said Christopher Muller, director of Beltrami County Emergency Management. "As of Saturday evening, several thousand customers remain without power. Due to incredible damage to infrastructure, it may take several days for restoration for all those affected. Crews have called in mutual aid from other companies to assist in recovery efforts," county officials said. The American Red Cross has opened a shelter in Bemidji at the Sanford Center, which was already assisting more than 60 people as of Saturday evening. The National Weather Service in Grand Forks hasn't yet determined if tornadoes caused damage in Beltrami County, but damage assessments conducted in Enderlin, North Dakota — where three people were killed — confirmed a large, violent tornado with an estimated EF-3+ intensity. The EF-scale classifies tornadoes by estimated wind speeds and damage indicators. EF-0: 65-85 mph, minor damage EF-1: 86-110 mph, moderate damage EF-2: 111-135 mph, significant damage EF-3: 136-165 mph, severe damage EF-4: 166-200 mph, devastating damage EF-5: 200+ mph, incredible damage "Tough times like this can shine a light on how much good we have in our community, and how fortunate we are to have people come from other communities and agencies to help us get through this challenging time," said Craig Gaasvig, Beltrami County board chair.
