We're gonna send it over to thunder 12 where VJ is out near New Rochelle. VJ. What are you seeing? Yes, we just got out of thunderbolt because we're here in New Rochelle and look, this is New Shell DPW. You can see the workers there and they are clearing that drain. Maybe, you know, a culvert area here because this is in the Pine Brook area of New Rochelle. And if you look right here, you can see the water already kind of flowing much faster now that they're removing all of that debris. You see it's different small limbs and things like that. And if you turn over here, this is Pine Brook Boulevard and you can kind of see, like, look, I'll walk over there, there are some trees or, you know, pieces of trees right here in the road. And you can imagine kind of what happened even though there's no water here anymore, Pine Brook over here, you know, the body of water, it came over here and water in this whole area leaving all of these cars just stranded in the middle. It looks kind of apocalyptic. They're just stranded there in the middle of the road, but you can see tow trucks here. And actually, if you do kind of like a 360 over here, you can see there's a DPW truck kind of blocking the area off and some caution tape. So that's what happened here. Now. It's just, you know, everyone's cleaning up and hopefully this won't happen again here because there's no rain right now. But we know we are expecting some at some point. So I see they're working hard, they're clearing that area and we will keep you updated on what happens around here as they try to clean up before the next bit of rain. Back to you guys.

Send it over to VJ. Now, who is in new show with the latest? What can you tell us? Yes, we're driving around downtown right now and it's been tough on New Rochelle. I mean, I know it's been tough on a lot of our areas but New Rochelle just by the numbers has gotten some of the most rain. You know, things look normal downtown here right now while there isn't as much rain, but we're kind of on stand by. We know already there's been a lot of clean up and there's going to be even more, you know, throughout the weekend, we were on a road earlier in the Pine Brook area on Pine Brook Boulevard where cars were just stranded, left behind by people because the Brook kind of overflowed its banks a little bit and, you know, brought debris into the road. There were tow trucks towing them away, you know, police tape keeping that blocked off, but the water there, at least luckily had receded. We know school was dismissed here earlier today early and all also, you know, around here there's a local state of emergency that's in effect. So a lot going on here. But you can see, you know, we're parked near this Planet Fitness at the moment at this red light and you can see people are still venturing out to do their normal Friday night activities in the city. But we are waiting to see because we know it's going to rain even more. So we're on stand by for that reporting in Rochell Veronica Seltzer News 12.
