WATCH: Heavy Rains Pound New York City, Flooding Subway Stations and Roads

Does anything work in New York City? Mayor Bill de Blasio’s time as mayor is mercifully coming to an end.  But is the once great city of New York even salvageable at this point? Eric Adams is no Rudy Giuliani. Not by a long shot.

Ruling NYC Democrats expect us to swim in this shit, disease-plagued water but they’ll come for you for not wearing a mask. https://t.co/SzsWAnHAih

I’ve given up on NYC as a functional city, so I’m actually more curious as to where this woman is going that’s so important… https://t.co/fe56wTET5A

Heavy Rains Pound New York City, Flooding Subway Stations and Roads

By New York Times, July 9, 2021

Heavy rains continued to spill through New York and New Jersey Friday morning as Tropical Storm Elsa made its way up the Northeast coast.

After a night of relentless storms and mass flooding, tropical storm warnings and flash flood watches were in place until Friday afternoon, according to the National Weather Service. The storm is expected to move across Long Island and parts of northern New Jersey with winds as high as 50 miles per hour.

In Westernville, N.Y., in Oneida County, severe thunderstorms uprooted trees, ripped out roofs and downed power lines, according to posts on social media Friday morning. The National Weather Service will conduct a survey Friday to determine whether the storms were actually part of a tornado.

In New York City and its suburbs on Thursday, heavy rains prompted the police to rescue more than a dozen people from one flooded stretch of highway and forcing would-be subway riders to navigate waist-deep waters on their way into one Upper Manhattan station.

Videos posted on Twitter showed several subway stations taking on water — some from above, some from below. The No. 1 station at Broadway and 157th Street in Manhattan appeared to suffer the most dire effects of the storm, with some passengers opting to wade through filthy water on their way to the platform.

Transit officials, already girding for Elsa’s arrival, said they had crews out across the city addressing the flooding problems as quickly as possible and warned against entering stations that might still be inundated.
