Thanks for posting...maybe there is hope that I will get home without too much of a delay tonight. I hate how fragile the LIRR system is when there is rain...forget a major storm

Re: IS the LIRR messed up from the city to LI
It's not looking too good for me yet - I'm on the Port Washington line. DH saw on the news that my station is almost completely flooded (almost up to the platform) earlier. I am keeping my fingers crossed.

I didn;t think many people took the train from OB. I myself used to use Syosset.
