Much of the city's subway service has been suspended and more than 300 flights have been canceled.
A Friday storm that has dumped as much as 6 inches of rain in parts of the metropolis — perhaps the biggest daily totals since September 2021 when the remains of Hurricane Ida hit the city — is causing stoppages and delays in transit service and cancellations of flights. It’s also turning roadways into rivers.
“It is not over, and I don’t want these gaps in heavy rain to give the appearance that it is over,” he said. The toll the storm was taking was obvious for anyone trying to get anywhere in the nation’s financial capital. Service on more than 15 of the city’s subway lines has been suspended or partially suspended, as of 1:15 p.m. ET.
“Please stay home if you don’t need to travel,” said the Metropolitan Transportation Authority , the area’s transit network, in a statement on its website.
