An intense storm hitting Boston Wednesday caused flooding that shut down a highway tunnel in the city and knocked out power for tens of thousands.
The on-ramp from Congress Street to Interstate 93 was flooded Wednesday night, Massachusetts State Police said.
Traffic was being diverted and the Massachusetts Department of Transportation was bringing in emergency crews to pump the water out.
