Two people were killed in New Jersey during flash flooding as severe storms lashed the New York City area on Monday night into Tuesday, submerging cars and flooding subway stations.

Footage shows wooden slats from the home on the ground with other debris. The blast took place around the same time heavy rainfall hit the northeast.

Transit agencies in the New York City area were promising a fairly smooth commute with some lingering delays on Tuesday, the morning after heavy rain pummeled the region, flooding parts of the subway system, inundating major roads and causing long flight delays.

New Jersey is expected to miss the heaviest rainfall in the latest round of thunderstorms on Tuesday, but more flash flooding is possible.
