My friend lives in Midtown and just realized she needs groceries, but can't get anywhere/stores are closed. I'm shocked at how many people still don't understand the scope of this.
Yep. The grocery store thing is going to start becoming a huge issue for many shortly. If the rain keeps up and the flooding does not recede and the city remains crippled, food will start to become an issue for many people.
This is an unprecedented weather event that has no parallel in modern American history except for Katrina but then that occurred in mostly static conditions where the flooding was not from rain.
It's looking more and more like the metro area is going to remain completely crippled until Thursday at least and likely partially crippled for weeks afterwards.
