NYC NJ 都有人在昨晚的大雨中丧生。遇到这种天真不是开玩笑的,该弃车逃命的时候就得逃 Some people were trapped in flooded basements of their homes, while one body was found in a vehicle that was swept away. The governors of New York and New Jersey declared a state of emergency, and New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio called it a "historic weather event". At least 3in (8cm) of rain fell in just one hour in New York's Central Park. Almost all New York City subway lines have been closed, and non-emergency vehicles banned from roads. Many flights and trains out of New York and New Jersey have been suspended. The mayor of the city of Passaic in New Jersey, Hector Lora, told CNN the body of a man in his 70s had been recovered from a vehicle that had been swept away in the floods. NBC New York has reported that at least one more person died in New Jersey. NBC and AFP reported that seven people had died in New York City, some after becoming trapped in their basements. A two-year-old boy was among the victims in New York City. Footage on social media showed water pouring into subway stations and people's homes, and flooded roads. New York resident George Bailey told the BBC: "Right in the middle of dinner I hear gurgling, and the water's coming up out of the shower drain in our bathroom. "I went to check the main water line in the utility room, and by the time I walked back into the living room there was nearly a foot of water. It was incredible how fast it came through." The US National Weather Service declared a flood emergency in New York City, Brooklyn, Queens and parts of Long Island, and issued tornado warnings for parts of Massachusetts and Rhode Island. A flood emergency, as opposed to a warning, is issued in "exceedingly rare situations when a severe threat to human life and catastrophic damage from a flash flood is happening or will happen soon", the NWS said. 'My train was stuck, there was no way out' BBC's Laura Trevelyan in New Jersey At 20:00 (16:00 GMT) on Wednesday night, torrential rain began to fall as the Amtrak train I regularly get between Washington and New York approached New Jersey. Suddenly, my phone lit up with flash flooding alerts, and the rainfall intensified, vast sheets of water hammering the side of the train. "It's like a car wash," said the cafe car attendant as we stopped at Metropark station. Soon came the announcement of flooding on the tracks ahead of us, making it impossible to reach New York. Passengers scrolled social media, swapping tales of flooding at Newark airport in New Jersey and streets underwater in Brooklyn. I called my husband at 01:00 and told him I was stuck. "There is no alternate transportation," read a sign at Metropark station. The roads around us were flooded, there was no way out, so I settled in for the night. At 02:00 came the announcement that our train was going back to Washington. I changed trains to one bound for New York - which still hadn't left as of 06:15. My husband is driving to get me, though he says many roads are closed.
刚看了有人传的一张照片, Costco 停车场的车都淹到顶了(跟上图里最上面那个车差不多),很吓人
从来没看到那么大的雨
Hurricane Ida 的尾巴
纽约雨也好大,我昨晚还做梦梦到发洪水,晕
我手机的Emergency Alert 响了四次。
还在保修期内么? 打电话去问吧。
刚被电话吵醒:说是如果不是有生命危险,不要打911,现在有很多emergency situation正在处理。没有必要不要出门。
有些地方应该淹得挺严重。
一个月之内,华人上看到郑州伦敦和纽约三个地方淹水的楼。今年天灾比去年更多的感觉
尾巴都那么厉害,不敢想象头是怎样的

美国的城市规划很差
