Sunday Soaker…

It was a wet Sunday on the Upper West Side of Manhattan… but the weekend brunch crowd still ventured out onto the sidewalks at 73rd Street and Columbus looking for food.

According to the NY Daily News… New York broke an all-time record for a one-day rainfall Sunday as up to 8 inches of water soaked the city, snarling trains and flooding roadways. By 9 p.m., 7.7 inches of rain had fallen at Kennedy Airport.

It was the most recorded there in a single day since the National Weather Service began keeping records 116 years ago.
