reminder that SUPERSTORM sandy was sub-category 1 and that an actual hurricane would bring with it a much more considerable storm surge than what flooded nyc and jersey

and yeah the mta hasn't meaningfully improved their sites to withstand any future flooding beyond just putting in a buncha watertight doors, to say nothing for other critical infrastructure

it's a huge problem, tho depressingly not that surprising - fema was still doing katrina work in new orleans in 2013

insanely owns that a huge chunk of the Carolinas' will get covered in radioactive pig poo poo water that also has coal ash in it and that since it's happening 2 months before elections they won't be able to get any of the shits responsable out.

Duscat posted:

it's actually processed coal ash used to make concrete that they're importing, because nobody's processing the local poison piles for some reason (i'm guessing it's mostly to own the libs since apparently it's financially viable to have the stuff shipped in from the other side of the planet)
