I know you know how to do this.
Get up.


i mean i guess the water all comes form reservoirs in yonkers, and then from upstate,

but definitely a hosed up old lake water smell. i just assume that lovely water treatment plant has something to do with it, but who knows

They crammed 800 nursing home patients into an old underwear factory with mattresses on the floor and 4 people died. Many got sick and overheated.

Strongly recommend against googling the :nms: article on this from today- it is absolutely horrific reading and will stick with me for a long time. gently caress Bob Dean forever.

that dirt/soil smell and taste comes from rotting vegetation in the reservoirs. i dont think the wt plant can remove it.

I don't really trust this timeline. It's suspicious that like 90% of the population is all coming online on the last day listed. I imagine this will be like "Well, see the transmission lines into these places are back up, but 150 transformers blew up, so YOUR power is not back on"

It's a bit more than that:

Yeah someone I just told actually knew because they heard it from some Hoboken alert.
Yes, it happens all the time. Constantly. Literally. You need to have a loving Twitter account if you want to find alerts. It's a mess. I'm busy roasting Fulop with her in texts right now because he's been disastrous in thousands of ways. Piece of poo poo guy, gently caress!

No it doesn't. It's a wastewater plant, so it stops your poop from going into the river. Does not provide your drinking water.

e: objectively the people saying fema does nothing are pretty correct, the function is a figleaf to pretend the gov is doing poo poo so we have basically the minimum amount of infrastructure the management can get away with, but i would still like to get people the scraps :(
