As the remnants of Florence moves into the U.S. northeast, residents of the Carolinas are confronting its after effects, including power outages, impassable roads, and sewage spilling into flooded areas.

With 1,500 roads closed across North Carolina, fire and rescue crews have been waiting to go into many areas to assist with structural damage. Flooded roads have also prevented some North Carolina farmers from accessing their fields and livestock to assess damage, said Andrea Ashby, spokeswoman for the North Carolina Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services.
