New York hit by heavy rain, rainwater pours into subway station, forming "waterfall"
On the 18th local time, New York City in the United States was hit by heavy rain, and a "waterfall" rainstorm formed in at least two subway stations and caused some train delays.
According to the New York Metropolitan Transportation Authority, about 35 centimeters of water flooded the subgrade inside the station and affected the subway's power supply. Later in the day, workers pumped the water out of the rails and assessed the damage, the Metropolitan Transportation Authority said. It is also said that the heavy rain also caused some delays in the subways in Upper Manhattan and the Bronx area. The report also mentioned that the northern subway system was also affected by the heavy rain, and some lines were suspended for several hours due to the flooding of the rails.
