State of Emergency Declared as Torrential Rain Floods NYC Subways, Strands Commuters
Severe storms and torrential rains caused widespread flooding across the New York City and New Jersey region, leading to dangerous flash floods that inundated subway stations, roads, and train tracks. Videos captured water pouring onto trains at Grand Central Terminal and flooding inside subway stations such as the 7th Avenue station in Brooklyn and the Jay Street-MetroTech station, with water seeping through walls and cascading like waterfalls. Several train services, including the Long Island Railroad's Port Washington Branch, were suspended due to flooding, and commuters faced significant disruptions and high transportation costs. New York City Mayor Eric Adams declared a state of emergency and issued travel advisories, urging residents to stay indoors and those in basement apartments to move to higher ground. New Jersey's acting governor also declared a state of emergency, as emergency officials requested residents avoid travel. The flooding has caused substantial damage and forced many to find alternative ways to commute amid the continuing adverse weather conditions.
