Stu Ostro: The water level is rising at The Battery at the southern tip of Lower Manhattan. The green line indicates it’s rising toward 3’ above normal astronomical levels. ... This will be something to monitor closely.

I'll say. Lower Manhattan is just a few feet above the water line. If storm surge causes Lower Manhattan to flood, all that water goes right into the subway tunnels, which will make a HELL of a mess.

Look at the bright side. The markets would be up 500 points on Monday if that happened.
