East Hartford (Connecticut, USA), Aug 23 (EFE / EPA) .- Henri has gradually weakened as it continues to move slowly along the northeastern coast of the United States, bit it is still forecast to bring heavy rainfall, flooding and even an isolated tornado or two on Monday to portions of southern New England.In its latest bulletin on Henri, which was a hurricane over the weekend but is now a post-tropical cyclone, the Miami-based National Hurricane Center said the system packing maximum sustained winds of roughly 35 kilometers per hour (25 miles per hour) is moving slowly toward the east-northeast, a path that will eventually take it out to sea.(Camera: CJ GUNTHER) SHOT LIST: THE HOCKANUM RIVER AFTER STORM HENRI PASSES THROUGH LABOR FIELD IN EAST HARTFORD, CONNECTICUT, US.
