Intense rainfall triggered severe flooding across New York City on Monday, July 14, with dramatic eyewitness video showing water surging into a subway platform. The downpour led to widespread disruption and prompted authorities to issue several flash flood warnings across the metro area. New York City subway services faced major delays as stations flooded, the Metropolitan Transportation Authority reported. Flash flood warnings were in effect across the city until 9:45 p.m., while New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy declared a state of emergency. A flood watch also covered much of the Tri‑State Area from 2 p.m. and was expected to remain in place until at least midnight, as officials warned of additional rainfall and rising water levels.
