Hurricane Sandy Update: Gowanus Waters Rising Further
It sure looks as though the water has risen considerably since noontime.
Thanks, Triada. You are one gutsy lady.
Stay safe everyone.
Not my most logical move, Katia, but I HAD to see it for myself! There is no doubt in my mind it is worsening as I write. And all that toxic soup is sitting on the ground now, and obviously seeping into it. Triada
ReplyDeleteIt may have been logical, but thanks for documenting the flooding. I wonder what it will look like tomorrow morning.
ReplyDeleteOut my window I see that Sackett Street is flooded all the way up to Bond - and high tide is still to come. Winds are whipping fiercely. People should stay in -this is not a time to go out and take pictures. I just heard about a person's window that blew out.
ReplyDeleteWith this wind, all the Gowanus crap will spray around in the neighborhood making a nice decoration for Halloween.
ReplyDeleteThe Battery water surge level is historic tonite Katia: over 11 feet if I just heard the TV right. Way worse than Irene.
ReplyDeleteI just saw that on the Weather Channel. And this is not even the worst.
ReplyDeleteThis is exactly what scientists have been warning for years now.
2nd is totally flooded up to Bond, at least. Houses at corner of 2nd and Bond definitely affected. It's even worse on 3rd Street at Bond. The water was starting to rush up the hill, as of around 8 PM.
ReplyDeleteI agree the scientists have been warning us since ages. Still a big disaster!
