(AP) - Gov. Andrew Cuomo has mobilized state resources to help areas of upstate New York recover from severe flash floods that swept through several communities earlier this week.
The Democrat says Wednesday that transportation department damage assessment teams will survey infrastructure in four counties, while environmental protection and financial services teams are conducting flood response services.
Flash floods caused by torrential rains early Tuesday caused damage to homes and roads from the Finger Lakes to the Binghamton area. Some of the worst damage is in Seneca County, where the rushing water swept vehicles, campers, trees and other debris into Seneca Lake.
There were no reports of fatalities or injuries.
