NY is under water. Current infrastructure can’t handle it.

I’m aware. Is this worse than Henri’s NYC rainfall record?

Flooded basements isn't fun, there's floods all over. This rain is record breaking!

This is MUCH worse. Cars are literally swimming in water, like those you only see in the news.

The winds/ fallen trees was worse then, as well as the areas in the coastal flood zones from the rising sea water (Brooklyn navy yard for instance was under water). Now it's the avalanche of rain which overwhelms the drains so there is standing water and backups all over. This is causing major damage.

I don’t remember Sandy being heavy rainfall, more flooding/wind at the coast.

During Sandy it was mostly along the coast, from my recollection. Hardly any rain.
