Prayers for everyone affected. 

So the remnants of this are bringin some stuff.

 This is the first time that alert has ever been issued across a population this large. Previous record for 1 hour of rain at Central Park was just under 2 inches and they just got 3.15 in an hour. Some areas in New Jersey got over 7 in a couple hours and not done yet. Streets, subway stations, Yankee Stadium, Newark airport flooding.

Like a week after being soaked by Henri.  Not good.

I'm ok.   Was stuck in a bar in the LES till midnight.  Major flooding near me but not on my streets.

Ever wish a beer stand would come to you so you wouldn't have to go to the beer stand?

The Busch stadium video in the comments is hilarious

Why do we still use the "1 in 200 year event" or, for the Texas issues earlier this year, "1 in 100 year event" for events that are much more likely to occur in the future than ever before?

Well, the law in the US recognizes those standards pretty heavily, so you'd have literally years of work writing new laws and decades of work updating the land use surveys if you tried to change those standards. By that point, whatever the climate is that we've got today, it's likely we'll have dramatically shifted it even more.
