Building next door just had a fire in the basement (probably electrical). Their basement filled up to the ceiling (it was pouring into mine). Tried to let the tenants know that the flood was taking out their boilers, hot water heaters.

Just to add. I did shutoff power to the boilers and laundry when I saw the hell that was being unleashed.

I had a river going down the street. A literal river. Ground water rose and overwhelmed my sump. Had water pouring in right down the basement steps.
Coin op laundry got flooded. So did my boilers. Electric service still dry for now. 24 years in JC and I have never seen flooding like this. I am in the Heights, so not exactly a flood zone.

Didn't see rain totals for Jersey City yet. News 12 New Jersey just said Bloomfield NJ has 10 inches so far.
