NycStormChaser Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 Yanks, this is how you get flash flooding in Manhattan. I just walked from WTC path to Whitehall terminal to work. I haven't seen this much water on the ground in a long time. Many sewers backed up, water running into some of the subway stations. I wouldn't be surprised if they close parts of the FDR and west side highway cause of large puddles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jm1220 Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 I just walked from WTC path to Whitehall terminal to work. I haven't seen this much water on the ground in a long time. Many sewers backed up, water running into some of the subway stations. I wouldn't be surprised if they close parts of the FDR and west side highway cause of large puddles. But it takes 15-20" of rain for flash flooding in Manhattan, so that's impossible. You're obviously hallucinating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
