8 dead in NYC, 7 in queens. A few of them not far from me. I live on the top of a hill in the 5th floor of a building so flooding is no issue for me luckily.

C was determined to drive into the city for an important pick-up today, with a pull-behind trailer, going to Gowanus. I tried to dissuade him but ultimately failed. Bon voyage!

Just emailed the dude I was supposed to be meeting and cancelled. Just as well; I'm right at the finish line on a *major* project and I'd rather be doing that anyway.

Looking at local facebook group and there are some crazy pictures from the storm last night. Our area is right on the LI Sound. Part of the road along the water collapsed and fell into the harbor. In another part of town, a cliff below some homes collapsed on to the beach below. Homes looked ok but could have to make some v v expensive (and not covered by insurance) repairs to shore up the cliff. Flooding everywhere.

Not NY, but photos from Philly of the Schuykill are insane.
Grew up in Philly (Roxborough) and saw many a big flood. But seeing this picture of cars on the Green Lane bridge with the Schuylkill this high seems unwise. I just don't get it. pic.twitter.com/AQEItIJhhE— Matt Miziorko (@SnarkyEM) September 2, 2021

Williamsburg, inland (near lorimer/metropolitan) and we didn’t sustain any flooding but things were certainly worse not far from here.

Have no idea why I posted that. Anyway came to post no thunder or rain (although maybe there was some earlier) just some sort of ominous wind out there.

I thought for sure that the power plant in LIC had exploded

For a while I kept seeing the lightning before hearing any thunder and was wondering if there was some kind of mirror truck outside on the street.

That was fucking nuts. I too had the exploding power plant theory. I’ve also never heard the “timpani roll” part of the crash be so long and so deep
