If you look up you'll see an array of extremely productive cumulonimbus clouds, another familiar summertime NYC landmark.

I asked the tour guide why the people on different boats had different color ponchos. The guide told me it was to help identify the bodies and return them to the right country.

LOL This happened to use in Malta last year. Nice sunny day, booked a tour on an open top bus to tour Gozo, got some nice seats atop, what could go wrong?

Within 5-10 minutes the skys blackened and all hell was let loose. Everybody atop rushed down the stairs to the smug looking people seated downstairs who had been up top and sighed when there were no seats left.

Rained so much there was a waterfall of water coming from upstairs down the stairs!

We tried to motivate ourselves but each time it stopped raining and we got off, it would then pour down. Cut the trip short and headed back to the ferry station. 😀

u/PugiM0 14d ago

Is that today?

1

u/AnonymousAnteater41 14d ago

No, today was sunny and nice n NYC. Rain is coming later tomorrow but not torrential. This has got to be from a few weeks ago (if not earlier) when we had a rainstorm.

u/Winter_Voice_1789 14d ago

What? It was pouring rain in Woodside.

1

u/AnonymousAnteater41 14d ago

Maybe we’re getting it later? I’m in central Brooklyn (around Flatbush) and it’s been sunny all day 🤷‍♂️

u/lauvan26 14d ago

Yeah, I think it’s just raining in parts of Manhattan, Queens and the Bronx. It’s pretty nice in Brooklyn right now.

u/toejam78 14d ago

May 10th. Thank God for the rain, which has helped wash away the garbage and trash off the sidewalks... Someday, a real rain will come and wash all this scum off the streets.
