Atomox
Aftermath
(305/365)
I ran into a guy here who had been out in Astoria Park the night before when trees started falling over. Everyone knows to stay away when the ground is super saturated, but we got very little precipitation from this event. The wind did the lion's share of the work. Afterwards, I walked over to the East side of the park, where I encountered multiple downed trees, but also couples and kids strolling through the park. As I looked across the East River at the Manhattan Skyline, I realized just how much being stranded in Queens made me miss the rush of midtown. While the damage is over, most of us are stranded in our neighborhoods, as subway service will not be back for at least "3 or 4 days, maybe more," according to Mayor Bloomberg. Certainly I'm not the only one with cabin fever.
