It is estimated that the repairs at the Brooklyn hospital could take a minimum of several days before it can resume operations.
On a street in South Williamsburg, Brooklyn, workers were up to their knees in water as they tried to unclog a storm drain while cardboard and other debris floated by. The city said that it checked and cleared key drains, especially near subway stations, ahead of the storm. But that was little comfort to Osman Gutierrez, who was trying to pry soaked bags of trash and scraps of food from a drain near the synagogue where he works.
"When it stops the buses, you know it's bad," he said. Bus service was severely disrupted citywide, according to the the Metropolitan Transportation Authority.
