Just got back from a jaunt along the Hudson River with my camera. It's crazy out there. The water level is higher than I've ever seen it...which isn't saying much because I've only ever seen it at normal levels before. It's basically up to the bottom of the piers and spilling over onto the sidewalk. It's eerie how slowly it rises as the waves come in. Of course, I wasn't the only one with the idea to go down to the river to see the flooding. Lots of people who I assume live in the W. Village were out there. Kids were jumping in the water as it slid across the pavement, carrying with it years and years of debris and detritus. I've posted the pics on Picasa here:
Additionally, here are some pre storm photos from yesterday in Greenwich Village
and pics of my room last night!
I remembered that the Media Ingest department here has USB adapters for compact flash cards so I was able to transfer the pics onto my laptop and upload. I even sent a few to the assignment desk to see if they'd put them on the air. More updates to come. It's raining sideways now. Glad I'm back inside!
