In related news, my Brooklyn BIL got interviewed about his flooding basement by CBS and will likely be in the lead story on national news tonight. Look for him—tall white guy, salt-n-pepper wavy hair, probably wearing glasses.

It is a fucking mess here. A serious problem that they really didn't plan for was getting kids home from school. A good portion of middle to high school students take mass transit, many kids do not have a school bus they get picked up by parents or babysitters. I normally pick up a kid on the upper east side and bring him home to Washington Heights. I could not get there from here. The bus lines I use were rerouted because of trees in the road. Fortunately they cancelled his after school and he was able to get a regular school bus home. But there are parents all over NYC trying to figure out how their kids are getting home right now. Also there was flooding in 150 schools, with one needing evacuation because the boiler started smoking.

A fitness studio that is so hardcore even the building sweats. Seen today in Washington Heights as rain poured off the roof of the building. Soggy day in NYC as my feet went squish, squish with my shoes filled with water.
