100,000 evacuated in floods in U.S north-east .

HEAVY rain has swamped areas of the US northeast already sodden from Hurricane Irene, killing up to five people as flash floods forced more than 100,000 to leave their homes.

The National Weather Service issued a flash flood warning yesterday for counties in New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Connecticut, Maryland and Virginia, as towns became inundated, busy highways closed down and commuter lines backed up.

President Barack Obama declared an emergency in New York and Pennsylvania, ordering federal agencies to co-ordinate disaster relief efforts to "save lives and to protect property and public health and safety", the White House said.

About 100,000 people in Pennsylvania's Luzerne county are under mandatory evacuation orders, including 20,000 in the city of Wilkes-Barre.

The city of Binghamton, New York, where 216mm of rain fell in 24 hours, has ordered a mandatory city-wide evacuation, affecting 10,000 people.

Flooding was also reported in and around Washington.

Three unconfirmed fatalities during the stormy weather have been reported to authorities in Pennsylvania. Two people, one of them a young boy who was swept away in a river, died in northern Virginia.

Three further systems are brewing in the Atlantic: Tropical Storm Nate, in the Gulf of Mexico, Tropical Storm Maria and Hurricane Katia, off the US east coast. The latest foul weather is from Tropical Storm Lee, which hit the Gulf Coast on Sunday.
