Ida dropped a historic amount of rain on the Island. See how much your area got.
The remnants of Hurricane Ida dumped historic amounts of rain on parts of Long Island Wednesday night, causing devastating floods, power outages and even a mudslide.
Although New York City and the Hudson Valley were hit the hardest, parts of Long Island — especially on the North Shore — were also deluged with rain water. Rainfall rates of 3-4 inches per hour were measured at the height of the storm, the National Weather Service says.
The 9 inches of rain that fell in Glen Cove - the highest total on the island - is more than double the average amount of rainfall in an entire month in the area.
