(Baltimore-AP) -- Baltimore Mayor Martin O'Malley says tidal flooding has been a big problem for the city. And he says another high tide is expected around 1 p-m that
could cause more flooding.
The waterfront was hit hard with tidal flooding. But O'Malley says the city has also had many complaints of fallen trees, and traffic signals that are not working because of power outages.
He's urging residents not to wade around in water because
manhole covers may have popped off during the surge and there is a danger of falling into a sewer.
There are no reports of serious injuries and there were no major crimes during the storm. 95 people are in shelters in the city. City public works officials say the water supply is fine. All water facilities are operating today, although some had power outages overnight.
