Broadcast of KDKA-TV's Eyewitness News from June 23, 1972, covering the impacts of Hurricane (Tropical Storm) Agnes on the Pittsburgh region.

Over the course of three days of heavy rainfall, the Pittsburgh area experienced record flooding. The total rainfall amounted to 11 inches, causing the Allegheny, Monongahela, and Ohio River valleys to be affected. As a result, Point State Park in downtown Pittsburgh was submerged. However, the Eastern Pennsylvania region was hit much harder, with the Susquehanna River causing severe flooding in cities such as Wilkes-Barre, Scranton, Easton, and Harrisburg, among others.

This video was pulled from another website, so I cannot remove the watermark or the time tracker. Shoutout to Bob Kudzma.
