We are fortunate but some other people along the Northeast United States coast are less fortunate. After my fears of yesterday that some forecasts late on Friday night were calling for epic rain where I live and worse just to the east, Henri took a more eastern track.
Putting my/spouse's Long Island and Rhode Island relatives in the path of the storm.
New York City was holding a Central Park concert yesterday to celebrate the return of the City, and at about 7:50 pm the concert was suddenly called, as Barry Manilow was singing "Can't Smile Without You".
Maybe he should have sung "Row, Row Row Your Boat" as the New York area parkways and streets are flooding. Meanwhile (some 150 miles away) our rain where I live started about 4:10 pm today.
This video was taken last night during the Central Park homecoming concert.Occupants of a packed subway card (heading towards the 59th St./Columbus Circle stop maybe, can't quite tell) conducted their own concert (the last minute or so of this video, but you may want to check out the sky in various parts of the video first). What an interesting sunset.
It wasn't interesting later last night as the rain came and came.
I am curious as to why the subway riders chose the state song of West Virginia, "Take Me Home, Country Roads".
It's so hard to believe that this song turned 50 this year.
Hoping all my friends (blogging and otherwise) and family stay safe from the storm.
Also hoping you can join me tomorrow for Music Moves Me.
