Nothing about water, but scanner said Bellevue requests oxygen from NYFD, and says they only have 1 hour of fuel left for generators. May need mass evacuation.

Cell phone tower down, NYFD Captain with no cell phone reception. 2nd manhole popping (flooding pressure?).

SERIOUSLY, this does not sound like the government was prepared at all! Did they think these hospitals would be undamaged?

Terrible time to be evacuating!

Seems much like "fog of war" -- the other report saying the generators were already offline.

If they only have 1 hr. of fuel left, someone messed up big time. Not good, any way you look at it.

Something about this whole storm reminds me of the scene in "Master and Commander" where the crazy old guy has written on him "hold fast". "Hold fast" indeed.

Seems like they should had had more on hand. Power couldn’t have been out for more than 12 hours.
