How can the NYC subway flood if its underground and within tunnels?




Answers:    Same way a underground store can flood-- if it's below the waterline and a leak develops, sea will come in.
Actually a better quiz would be how can a subway NOT flood?
It is lower than surrounding streets and water will intrinsically want to accumulate within the tunnel.
They are constantlya fighting beside elaborate drain systems and even drain pumps to hold unwanted water out of railroad and subway tunnels.
