Still waiting for the water to flood New York...

Hurricane Sandy flooded big parts of lower Manhattan and Brooklyn. I have friends who couldn't go back to their apartments or offices for months afterwards.

Hurricane Ida in 2019 brought torrential rains which flooded the city, especially the subway.

  • Torrential rain has nothing to do with sea rising which is the topic discussed at hand. You can have torrential rains anywhere in the world not just on the coastline.
