My neice is working in the District right now. She said it is worse than she has ever seen here. Too much asphalt.
Reader, do the subway's flood? I imagine that would come near to crippling a place like DC.
I know that the sewers backed up in DC, related to the subways somehow, and flooded the National Archives. IRS headquarters, Dept of Commerce and the Zoo were also flooded and closed. I think I heard that Archives was built over a river.
The subways and buses are running -- they may have had to shut down part of one line I'm not sure -- although the tracks of some of the train lines got washed away and I guess the runways were too flooded for planes to fly at one point.
My back neighbors did a huge addition and eroded and changed the water course and I have had major water since then. They're really nice and I happened to talk to them and they told me that the water is actually coming from THEIR uphill neighbor.
