An entire house has been swept away by raging floodwaters in New Hampshire as a ferocious storm battered parts of the north-east.
Footage shot by a resident captured the unbelievable moment the house started floating down the Baker River in the small town of Warren on Monday.
Moments later, the one-story house was filmed crashing into a bridge and smashing into pieces.

‘This is so sad,’ Tom Babbit, who shared the video on Facebook, wrote.
No one was in the house at the time and it isn’t yet clear who the homeowners are.
The fierce storm left nearly 1.5 million homes and business across the region in the dark at the peak on Monday. More than 800,000 customers remained without power Tuesday morning.
While the house was swept away in New Hampshire, sailboats also crashed onto a beach in Massachusetts and an empty scaffolding truck was blown off a bridge.
Thousands of trees were also toppled.
