Photos: Massachusetts, Hampton Beach flooding today

The latest weather system to sweep through New England has left communities across the region dealing with significant flooding, just a few days after the first snow storm to hit Greater Boston.

Flood waters covered roadways, rivers rose to major flood stage and coastal flooding proved to be an issue in many waterfront areas.

Large waves were seen crashing over a sea wall in Winthrop, Mass., leading to street flooding along the coast. Not far inland, cars were pictured Wednesday morning halfway underwater on Vale Street along the Chelsea-Everett line.

In Norwood, a car was seen washed away on Upland Road, where a big mess was left behind from the heavy rain.

Further north, in Wells, Maine — a town of about 10,000 people 30 miles south of Portland — coastal flooding closed down roads and made for impressive wave displays along the rocky Maine seashore.
